EVALUATION OF COMPUTER ALGEBRA SYSTEMS USING FUZZY AHP

Year 2013, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 533 - 539, 01.12.2013

Abstract

The paper proposes an evaluation model based on fuzzy AHP to help users select CAS
that best matches their requirements. The subjectiveness and imprecision of the evaluation process
are modeled using linguistic terms. The evaluation criteria framework based on the usability and
problem solving capability of CAS is developed. Fuzzy (AHP) is employed to determine the relative
importance weights of criteria and the preference order of alternatives. The applicability and effectiveness
of the proposed methodology is illustrated.
