One of the strengths of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is that it allows decision-makers
to specify their preferences using a verbal scale. Yet, as is well known, a strict reliance on …

Consider an AHP decision-maker who is uncertain about his or her preferences. In fact,
suppose he or she is only able to specify unbiased estimates of these preferences. Then given …

Relativistic wave equations are derived which generalize the recently obtained Galilei-covariant
wave equations for massive particles with any integer or half-integer spin. Imposing a …

A new family of dividend valuation models assumes that the discount rate is fixed and models
the pattern of dividend payments as a Markov process. The basic model is binomial. It …

We define a wash criterion as one where the decision-maker is indifferent among the
alternatives when they are compared on that criterion. In view of the Belton–Gear example and …

Solid solutions of 2H‐SiC/AlN can be prepared at temperatures less than 1600C by rapid
pyrolysis (“hot drop”) of mixtures of [(Me 3 Si) 0.80 ((CH 2 =CH)MeSi) 1.0 (MeHSi) 0.35 ] n (VPS…

… In our Hurley-Johnson [1994] dividend discount model (DDM), dividends are assumed to …
Hence, in this note, we extend the basic Hurley-Johnson approach to more general Markov …

The Gaussian distribution is a good approximation for transient (instantaneously released)
puff concentration distributions within a short period of time after release. Artificial neural …

The existence of a Hermitianizing matrix η is usually assumed in the study of first-order
relativistic wave equations because it provides for an invariant scalar product, bilinear densities (…

The generation of non-oxide ceramics by pyrolysis of a suitable organometallic precursor has
been widely pursued as a general route to ceramic fibers, coatings, matrices, etc., as well …
