Abstract:
Let ( X , d ) be a metric space and Ω i , i = 1 , 2 , … , m , be a nonempty subset of ( X , d ) . An operator T : ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i → ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i is called an alternative map if T ( Ω j ) ⊆ ∪ i ≠ j Ω i , j = 1 , 2 , … , m . In addition, if for any x, y ∈ ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i , there exists a constant α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ) such that d ( T x , T y ) ≤ α d ( x , y ) + ( 1 − α ) d ( Ω j , Ω k ) for some Ω j and Ω k ∈ { Ω i } i = 1 m with x ∈ Ω j and y ∈ Ω k , then we call T an alternative contraction.

Abstract:
The selection of the best supplier to fulfil the needs of the store in the continuous sale of electronic goods requires a selectivity process using many factors, namely product quality, product price, service, and product delivery speed. However, the number of alternatives to be selected can make it difficult for decision makers to determine the best choice in the selection process. Therefore, a decision support system is needed to support decision making so that the selection of the best electronic goods supplier can be done easily and quickly.

After presenting the essentials of my defense of PAP and applying it to this case, I go on to consider several objections that have been (or might be) raised against it and argue that they don’t succeed.

Design/methodology/approach – In this paper, fuzzy values, assigned to various criteria and alternatives by a number of decision makers, are converted into crisp values and then aggregated scores are evaluated. After obtaining experts’ scores, objective and subjective weights of the criteria have been calculated using variance method an

Abstract:
This research constitutes an application of heuristic optimization using the nearest neighbor (NN) method. It is a method used to design a route based on the next closest distance. The case here is the garbage freight of Yogyakarta City which becomes one of the Environmental Services Department duties. The sector of this research object is Malioboro-Kranggan because it has the highest number of TPS locations. There are 34 TPS locations, and 2 depots with an average volume of total garbage are 197 m3/day. Several alternative routes have resulted because the same distance was found when deciding

Abstract:
If our cosmic location lies within a large-scale under–dense region or "void", then current cosmological observations can be explained without resorting to a cosmological constant or to an exotic and elusive source like "dark energy". If we further assume this void region to be spherical (as almost all current void models do), then fitting observational data severely constrains our position to be very near the void center, which is a very special and unlikely observation point. We argue in this article that existing spherical void models must be regarded as gross approximations that arise by s
