Learning business Chinese through digital materials has become an inevitable tendency with the growth of the internet and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the increasing research-based publications and practices relating to Chinese language textbooks, there is a dearth of assessment indicators weight systems constructed by alternative research tools and statistical methods to evaluate the quality of the growing digital business Chinese materials. To the best of our knowledge, no literature review has been published on using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method to construct the assessment indicators of digital business Chinese materials. Therefore, this study aims to fill this gap by reviewing the existing, but limited, literature and providing recommendations for developing a checklist—based on the assessment indicators weight system—to evaluate digital business Chinese materials. The preliminary PC2U (Production, Content, Use, and Usefulness) assessment indicators are constructed based on the current research on business Chinese, CLTML, and relevant assessment indicators. In addition, the analysis hierarchy process (AHP) is used to construct the weight system. The results show that it is crucial to prioritize the access of digital business Chinese content. Of the three criteria in the content dimension, learning needs and credibility are equally important, and both are more important than data update. The assessment indicators are not only beneficial to fill the knowledge gap on business Chinese research, but also helpful for publishers and teachers to compile and select high quality digital business Chinese materials.

Abstract Introduction Haemodialysis is one of the methods of renal replacement therapy which is most frequently used in Poland and in the world in patients with chronic and acute renal failure. Purpose: An attempt was made to have patients undergoing regular haemodialysis assess the results of activity of dialysis centres. Methods 64 patients (30 women, 34 men, age: 50.2 +/- 11.9 years) undergoing dialysis therapy in three selected dialysis centres in Poland were included in the study. A questionnaire correlated with the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was employed for the assessment. The dialysis centres were assessed by the patients in the context of availability of services, communication between the medical staff and the patient and the treatment used. Two sub-criteria were connected with each criterion, for which significance (priorities) indicating a dependent impact on the assessment of the quality of dialysis centres was calculated. Results From amongst four domains of the assessment of dialysis centres, the patients rated medical care and nursing care the highest (w = 0.386), where medical care had significance equal to 0.455, and nursing care had significance equal to = 0.545. The next important part of the assessment of dialysis centres was communication between the medical staff and the patient (w = 0.321) and the treatment used (haemodialysis) (w = 0.155). Availability of services had the lowest significance (w = 0.138), including performance of examinations for kidney transplant and medical transport for haemodialysis. Conclusions The assessment of dialysis centres using the AHP method should be part of the therapeutic process where one needs to emphasise the role of the patient in chronic nephrological care which translates into the quality of services provided by dialysis centres. Key messages The assessment of dialysis centres using the AHP method should be part of the therapeutic process. The patient’s role and its good assessment in the treatment process is very important.

When considering several factors affecting the quality of gluten-free cookies, choosing the optimal formula based on multi-criteria decision making is complex and not easy. Therefore, in this study the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was used to optimize the best formula for a gluten-free cookie containing banana peel powder. For this purpose, physicochemical aspects such as texture, aroma, taste, color and porosity, fiber content, antioxidant activity, phenolic compounds, moisture content and ash content were evaluated to determine the optimal formula for a gluten-free cookie containing banana peel powder. The results showed that the optimal cookie contained 4% banana peel powder with a weight of 0.178. Moreover, the results showed that the rate of inconsistency was 0.77, and since it was less than 0.1 the results are reliable.

The quality of human life is linked to the exploitation of mining resources. The Exploitability Index (EI) assesses the actual possibilities to enable a mine according to several factors. The environment is one of the most constraining ones, but its analysis is made in a shallow way. This research is focused on its determination, according to a new preliminary methodology that sets the main components of the environmental impact related to the development of an exploitation of industrial minerals and its weighting according to the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). It is applied to the case of the ophitic outcrops in Cantabria (Spain). Twelve components are proposed and weighted with the AHP and an algorithm that allows for assigning a normalized value for the environmental factor to each deposit. Geographic Information Systems (GISs) are applied, allowing us to map a large number of components of the environmental factors. This provides a much more accurate estimation of the environmental factor, with respect to reality, and improves the traditional methodology in a substantial way. It can be established as a methodology for mining spaces planning, but it is suitable for other contexts, and it raises developing the environmental analysis before selecting the outcrop to be exploited.

<p class="Default">In order to sustain in a competitive market like pharmaceutical in Bangladesh, it is important to get an insight into physicians’ preferences in prescribing the drugs. The aim of this work is to investigate and address the physician requirements through an integrated methodology of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Quality Function Deployment (QFD). In this research, an expert panel has been interviewed to recognize the criteria affecting physicians’ decisions. The results from AHP derived through Expert Choice software demonstrate that from the viewpoint of physicians, out of the five criteria, quality of product offering is ranked highest in prescribing the drugs followed by the reputation of the company, relationship enjoyed with the company, etc. As for the technical aspects, derived from the relationship matrix of AHP and QFD, out of the sixteen, brand image is ranked first followed by the quality of raw and packaging materials, skilled production personnel etc. The contribution of this research is expected to enable the managers in the pharmaceutical companies to recognize the factors that influence physicians in prescribing drugs for the patients and help them find out challenging items with preeminent alternatives. Few suggestions for future research are also put forward. <strong></strong></p>
