The SIR.TOPSIS method has two different variants, which we refer to here as SR.TOPSIS and IR.TOPSIS. Noteworthy, each variant gives attention only to one type of indexes rather than both types, which may result in questionable final ranking of alternatives. Additionally, the SIR.TOPSIS variants ranking indexes have been based on the TOPSIS closeness coefficient, which is inflexible in the sense of not being affected by the relative importance of separations of each alternative from positive ideal solution and negative ideal solution. Likewise, the SIR.SAW method ignores the relative significances of superiority flows and inferiority flows of alternatives. It is therefore worthwhile to introduce a new ranking method to overcome the flaws seen in Xu's SIR methods. Comparison of the ranking results obtained shows that the suggested method is a relevant and implementable alternative to Xu's SIR methods.","PeriodicalId":38184,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Decision Sciences","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136079321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each of this type of projects, different crew options are available for each activity and selecting the best option corresponding to each activity is a difficult task. Project managers in these projects are often faced with the task of finding out the best schedule corresponding to the optimum project duration and expenditure which will satisfy different constraints. Since the computational complexity is very high in these types of projects, an ABC algorithm-based heuristic methodology is developed in this study, which can give good solutions for satisfying the above mentioned objectives with respect to different constraints. The proposed methodology's performance is analysed with exact solutions and the results show that an ABC algorithm-based methodology gives significantly good quality solutions.","PeriodicalId":38184,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Decision Sciences","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135704363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
