One of the main challenges of performance evaluation in organizations and all systems is the irrationality and inaccuracy of the methods and criteria used. Traditional performance evaluation methods are mostly one-level, so they usually fail to provide sufficient feedback to identify inefficient units. Data envelopment analysis is a mathematical programming technique that compares the relative efficiency of several decision-making units based on observed inputs and outputs expressed by a variety of different scales. In practice, since many decision-making units are subdivided into smaller parts, with standard data envelopment analysis models that consider the organization as a whole, logical results are not obtained. Therefore, it would be better to use developed models like the two-stage DEA model to more accurately evaluate under investigation units in these conditions. Moreover, in cases that there are a large number of inputs and outputs, traditional DEA is not very efficient and it may consider a large number of units as efficient one. To deal with the problem, this study uses PROMETHEE method to rank criteria. After that, the efficiency evaluation problem is continued with most important inputs and outputs. Since the available information is usually incomplete and inaccurate, the problem is solved in the gray environment. The findings indicate a significant decrease in the number of identified efficient units which shows the improvement in discrimination power of DEA method. Additionally, the use of uncertain environment has led to more accurate estimates than previous definite models. Manuscript profile

Selecting location of an insurance branche often has been considered as a main problem of parent company. This research aims to deal with location problem of a new branch of Alborz insurance Co. in Guilan province based on the combination of several multi-criteria decision making models with fuzzy data. In the proposed model, there are five criteria and six alternatives (locations). To solve a location prioritization problem four steps are defined in this research: 1) Determination of proposed locations and selection of experts by branches managers, definition of linguistic variables and their corresponding fuzzy numbers, 2) Selection of some effective criteria among different criteria using fuzzy delphi method, 3) Pairwise comparison of the criteria and alternatives using fuzzy analytical hierarchy process method, 4) computation of mean wight of criteria for each of experts and using fuzzy logarithmic least square method, 5) Definition of a comprehensive decision matrix, 6) Definition of a fuzzy preference function, total preference matrix, calculation of positive and negative flow, calculation of net flow and defuzzification of fuzzy numbers using Chen method, 7) Determination of possibility degree and weight of each alternative. Finally, regarding to the score of each alternative, place 3 selected as the first priority and places 4, 5, 6, 1 and 2 determined as the next priorities, respectively.

Introduction and purpose: The development of educational and executive spaces that have been expanded interactively with the environment is a national need. To this end, assessing the potential of developing educational spaces based on the environment and green schools can be a big step towards achieving environmental protection and health in the country. Method: In the current study, considering the purpose of evaluation (potential measurement of the development of green educational areas), two comprehensive phases have been used under the study framework. In the first phase, which includes data collection, the descriptive-survey method has been used in two stages of field and office study. The information collected in this phase was completed using expert personnel and questionnaires, and after classification, it entered the second phase of computer analysis. At this stage, 7 main criteria including human, social, land use, educational, environmental, population and green schools indicators were extracted, while each criterion includes different sub-criteria. In the second phase, by using three decision-oriented approaches, including fuzzy-parametric, fuzzy-rank multi-criteria and BWM methods, the coefficients and priority degree of factors and evaluation criteria have been determined. The impact coefficients obtained from these approaches after normalization, have been entered into the GIS environment as different layers of information and potential maps have been prepared for district No. 2 of Tehran. Findings: The prioritization of indicators shows that environmental and educational indicators have the highest score, and then land use and social indicators have taken the next ranks respectively. Based on the results, it can be said that there are currently 3 schools in this area that have been able to cover the middle belt of district No. 2 in question. Conclusion: Based on the results of this research, it can be found that the indicators of green schools should be localized in accordance with the social, environmental and economic conditions of Iran, and if possible, a comprehensive model of the development of green schools in the 2nd district of Tehran, relying on the compatibility of the environment and also creating interaction with the environment for areas without coverage (required) should be prepared in cooperation with the Environment, Education and Culture Organization. Also, a comprehensive database should be prepared for the entire city of Tehran. In addition, the construction of environmental schools or the conversion of ordinary schools into green schools should be placed on the agenda of the School Development and Renovation Organization due to the energy crisis and global warming.   Manuscript profile

An important and core issue for the managers of banking sector is to evaluate and rank the branches of a bank. In this study, a typical multi-criteria ranking problem for the Tose’e Ta’avon bank branches in Khuzestan province of Iran as a case study is defined and solved. For this aim, first a set of important criteria for evaluating banking sector are selected from the literature and experts of the field. Then, for coping with the uncertain nature of the real-life problems, the data of the bank branches in the selected criteria for the past years are obtained and represented as interval values. A decision framework consisting of two phases are proposed to rank the given bank branches. In the first phase the criteria are weighted by the methods such experts’ opinions, interval Shannon’s entropy, and linear combination of these two methods. In the second phase, the classical PROMETHEE approach is extended to its interval form and applied to rank the bank branches. By implementing the proposed solution methodology on the case study, several rankings are obtained and their similarities are compared to each other. The decision maker can consider any of the rankings for further managerial decisions. Manuscript profile

Nowadays one of the most important global issues is environmental problems that can cause harm to human and other organisms. This problem is caused due to various factors like pollutants and other environmental disturbances. Because of these factors we need to find strategies for solving such problems. One of the most important problems in the world is the pollution produced by different industries like oil industry that has a significant role in the nations economic and progress. There are many solutions and methods for surveying and mitigating the industries effects.Multiple Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) is one of these methods that order alternatives based on their importance. Ranking problems consist in rank ordering of all alternatives from the worst to the best, looking at their evaluations on the considered criteria.In present study two more important outranking methods (PROMETHEE and ELECTRE) were assessed and their advantages and disadvantages were surveyed. Also a study was done in Arak petrochemical industry by PROMETHEE method as an case study and construction phase alternatives were ranked by mentioned method.Case study investigation and review on other studies showed that the PROMEHTEE method because of some features like being easy to use, understandable, Ability to cope with uncertainty, importance the decision makers, ability of visual representation, validity and flexibility is more applicable than ELECTRE.So the suggested method can be applied for making environmental decisions and also oil and petrochemical industries that simultaneously deal with qualitative and quantitative data and uncertainty.

According to national laws, the need to organize office buildings in newly established cities as office sites is raised, and increasing the benefits of operating these complexes depends on choosing the appropriate location. Proper location is very complex process due to its multifaceted nature. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the variables and combine them in the form of a comprehensive application model and formulate an application instruction.In order to achieve the main purpose of the research, first, effective criteria in locating land uses have been formulated, and in particular, administrative sites, which facilitate and make optimal choices. Since in the process of optimal location due to the multiplicity of variables and effective indicators, we need to use multi criteria decision making techniques and models in this study preferred ranking method Promethee is used. The model has been widely used in the past few years due to the capabilities defined in it based on fuzzy mathematical methods and its simplicity, and according to the 6 functions with the ability to define complete preference, relative preference, with topics. Urban planning, and specifically the issue of location, is very relevant. Since the main and sub-variables of the research should be entered into the model in a weighted manner and with specific significance coefficients. Relevant coefficients were determined by selecting the experts and performing pairwise comparisons (part of the AHP model).In the process of conducting research and in order to identify the options with the basic requirements for the location of office sites in Bakhrez city, the technique of combining layers in GIS software has been used. The identified positions included eight positions in the city, which were ranked Promethee multi criteria decision making model, and the optimal positions for the establishment of an office site in the city were introduced.

The cityscape, particularly the city entrances, plays a significant role in attracting tourists and forming their initial impressions of a city. However, the entrance spaces of Ardabil, despite its rich cultural and historical heritage and strategic location as a major tourist destination, suffer from various problems and do not exhibit the desired characteristics. This research aims to assess the visual appeal and landscape quality of Ardabil's city entrances and prioritize them for future planning. The study adopts an applied research approach with a descriptive, analytical, and survey method. The research population consists of 15 urban planning experts and professionals in Ardabil. Four indicators, including physical, functional, aesthetic, and representation of the city's identity, were used to measure desirability. The Shannon's entropy model was utilized to assign weights to the indicators, and the PROMETHEE model was employed to prioritize the entrances based on the desired indicators. The results ranked the entrances as: 0.226, 0.011, -0.104, -0.074, with the first four entrances taking the top spots, and the Tehran-Ardabil entrance ranking fifth with a score of -0.059. Consequently, planning efforts should be organized according to the strengths and weaknesses of each entrance, while respecting the priority of intervention. Manuscript profile
