In this paper, the application of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) combined with a set of criteria analysis for the selection of appropriate sites for the development offshore wind energy in Taiwan is presented. The Fuzzy AHP was first conducted to rank the importance and identify the key factors of offshore wind energy successfully. From the numerical results, eight key factors that must be considered in the site selection of offshore wind energy system in Taiwan were obtained by using Fuzzy AHP model. They are: wind power, earthquakes, land use, shore type, typhoon, distance to shoreline, flight safety and water depth. Based on these factors, a set of criteria for the selection of sites for offshore wind farms was also established using five different sites in Taiwan. From the assessment results, it was found that Changhua coastal region is an appropriate site for offshore wind energy in Taiwan.

Decisions usually involve the getting the best solution, selecting the suitable experiments, most appropriate judgments, taking the quality results etc., using some techniques.  Every decision making can be considered as the choice from the set of alternatives based on a set of criteria.  The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process is a multi-criteria decision making and is dealing with decision making problems through pairwise comparisons mode [10].  The weight vectors from this comparison model are obtained by using extent analysis method.  This paper concern with an alternate method of finding the weight vectors from the original fuzzy AHP decision model (moderate fuzzy AHP model), that has the same rank as obtained in original fuzzy AHP and ideal fuzzy AHP decision models.

BMT Al-ittihad terdapat bermacam-macam pembiayaan  salah satunya Murabahah yang berarti akad jual beli barang dengan menyatakan harga perolehan dan keuntungan (margin) yang disepakati oleh penjual dan pembeli. BMT Al-itthad dalam proses melaksanakan akad Murabahah dilakukan dengan menganalisa kelayakan pemberian pembiayaan kepada anggota dengan cara melengkapi persyaratan umum dan menggunakan bahasa yang subjektif terhadap penilaian kriteria karakter berdasarkan rekomendasi anggota lain,wawancara dan cara berkomunikasi, Penilaian karakter merupakan penilaian yang paling penting berdasarkan hasil wawancara dengan kepala pembiayaan karena penilaian karakter merupakan penilaian untuk melihat apakah anggota sanggup dan amanah membayar hutang. Untuk mengatasi penilaian yang bersifat subjektif maka dirancang sebuah sistem pendukung keputusan pemberian pembiayaan dengan menggunakan metode fuzzy analytic hierarchy process. Metode fuzzy AHP merupakan penggabungan dari metode fuzzy dan AHP. Metode fuzzy AHP dapat menutupi kelemahan yang terdapat pada AHP yaitu menangani penilaian yang bersifat subjektif . Sistem ini dirancang menggunakan bahasa pemrograman PHP, MySQL , sedangkan metode pengembangan sistem menggunakan V-model dan UML sebagai standar pemodelannya. Sistem pendukung keputusan  ini dapat memudahkan serta mempercepat proses penentuan pemberian pembiayaan Murabahah kepada anggota.

With the growing development of the society nowadays, the economic growth in China is also increasing fast, which deeply influences the decisions and options that university students make to plan for their future and to seek for the opportunities of the internship. This paper analyzes the attitude and the aims towards to internship for the university students, especially for those who major in engineering management, combining the actual cases analysis, this paper introduces the Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to build the combination model named Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP). It is applied to better selection of the internship for whom majoring in engineering management. The actual results show that it can solve such multi-factor, multi-level and uncertain decision making problems, which is of practical significance to the university students who are searching for the internship of engineering management.

Based on a comprehensive analysis of the influencing factors and special features of cement concrete pavement overlaying technology, a fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model is constructed for the comparison and selection of overlaying schemes. At first, the numerical weight for each criterion of the hierarchy is derived and tested. Then the feature matrices of all the schemes are constructed based on experts’ evaluation. The optimal scheme is chosen according to the numerical priorities of each scheme yielded by fuzzy calculation.

The development of multi-country consolidation services has become a major feasible direction for major ocean freight forwarding firms in Taiwan. However, ocean freight forwarding firms must ponder which factors are most important when considering with the development of multi-country consolidation services. Therefore, the main purpose of this article was to apply the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method to evaluate the key factors influencing the development of multi-country consolidation services for ocean freight forwarding firms in Taiwan. Based on the literature and experts’ opinions, a hierarchical structure with 4 assessment aspects and 16 assessment factors was first constructed, and the steps of fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method then proposed. Finally, based on the analytic hierarchy process experts’ questionnaires, we used the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method to evaluate the key factors. The results showed that (1) “cost” is the most important aspect influencing the development of multi-country consolidation services for ocean freight forwarding firms in Taiwan; (2) in order of relative importance, the top eight key factors influencing the development of multi-country consolidation services for ocean freight forwarding firms in Taiwan are “cargo accuracy and tracking management,”“consolidation cost,”“deregulation of operations,”“transport cost,”“integrated logistics information management,”“high frequency of ship sailings,”“logistics-related operating costs,” and “convenience of customs clearance,” respectively. Furthermore, some discussions and recommendations concerning practical implications are provided for ocean freight forwarding firms operating in the multi-country consolidation market.
