Streszczenie Lokalizacja składowiska odpadów z procesów hydrometalurgicznych ma bardzo duży wpływ na koszty jego budowy i ryzyka związane ze środowiskiem. Wybór miejsc ługowania hałdy zależy od różnych parametrów technicznych (topograficznych, hydrologicznych, hydrogeologicznych i innych) oraz od uwarunkowań ekono­micznych i ekologicznych. W wielu przypadkach wybór optymalnych miejsc ługowania hałdy dokonywany jest z uwzględnieniem szeregu kryteriów za pomocą metod ELECTRE, TOPSIS i AHP. W artykule, w pierwszej kolejności określono kryteria do lokalizacji miejsc ługowania (o charakterze technicznym, finansowym i środo­ wiskowym) i zbadano ich wpływ na wybór lokalizacji miejsc ługowania. Następnie korzystając z metody AHP problem decyzyjny rozpatrywano na trzech poziomach, wykorzystując oprogramowanie „Expert Choice". W celu sprawdzenia metody wybrano hałdę w okolicy Taft, prowincji Yazd w Iranie. Analiza wrażliwości, która bada reakcję całego przedsięwzięcia została przeprowadzona dla głównych kryteriów technicznych, ekono­micznych i środowiskowych.

Quantitative evaluation of nuclear reactors decommissioning are difficult because the identification of appropriate quantification methodologies and evaluation procedures is still ongoing. We developed an evaluation framework consisting of 20 indicators derived from the 6 criteria, which could holistically and structurally evaluate nuclear reactors decommissioning. We chose a real decommissioning project in China as a case study. The results demonstrated that the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was capable of nuclear reactors decommissioning evaluation.

Hierarchy Process

Decisions related to managing IT resources - which resources to keep in-house and which resources to outsource - are critical to business success. The goal of this paper is to show the usefulness of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a decision-making tool for IT sourcing decisions, based on an analysis of factors that recent literature found to be associated with IT sourcing risk. Although the AHP previously has been suggested for IT outsourcing decision making, this study is the first to consider evaluating the risks of offshore outsourcing, rural outsourcing, and in-sourcing IT processes by using the AHP. From the perspective of the expert decision maker, three IT sourcing strategies were evaluated with respect to 58 criteria. The case study example presented in this paper shows the effectiveness of the AHP to support management for this business decision. The authors' results show that a systematic approach to analyzing outsourcing can reduce the uncertainty and risk that is common in such decisions.
