APPLYING FUZZY ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS (FAHP) a-CUT BASED AND TOPSIS METHODS TO DETERMINE REGENCIAL ROAD HANDLING PRIORITY (Case Study: Badung Regency - Bali)

Abstract

This study examines regencial road handling priority using FAHP a-cut
based and TOPSIS methods using Badung regency in Bali province as the case
study area. The study is restricted to regencial roads under severe conditions.
Adoption of these FAHP a-cut based and TOPSIS methods allow the researcher to
have estimation regarding the overall road handling priority considering the
decision makers’s attitude from optimistic to pessimistic situations and decision
makers’s degree of confidence from under the most uncertain to certain
comparisons. Meanwhile, the previous study has analysed the same case study area
using FAHP extent analysis and TOPSIS methods with no consideration on
decision makers’s attitude and confidence. This study concluded that road handling
determination using FAHP a cut based and TOPSIS methods, considering both
pessimistic and moderate situations and highly optimistics situation with uncertain
conditions of the decision makers, produced similar top prioty as it used FAHP
extent analysis and TOPSIS methods.
