“…With the AHP one simply uses an individual's understanding together with a way to convert his judgments to ratios to deal with optimization. Olson et al, [1986] proposed a technique of analysis for multiple objective policy models that uses the AHP as a means of initially checking for consistency. A simple pattern search around this initial solution will provide decision makers with alternatives for comparison.…”

Five examples of applications of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) are made to illustrate the different uses of this ratio scale multicriteria decision method in transportation. They include a commuter route selection hierarchy, a best mix of routes to Pittsburgh's new International Airport, a benefits/costs hierarchy to choose the best mode to cross a river, a planning hierarchy for a transport system and a simple dependence with feedback cycle to choose a car when criteria depend on the alternatives. For a better appreciation of the use and power of the method, the examples are followed by a resume of developments in research on the (AHP) in the last few years.

“…The AHP has been widely used in the areas of social science, engineering and business to assess the relative importance (weights) of different criteria in the provision of a good or service, and following on from this, to derive scores for given goods and services. [214][215][216][217][218][219][220][221][222][223][224] There are four main stages involved in conducting an AHP study: 220 Step 1 -Structure the problem: the first stage when using AHP is to construct a decision hierarchy for the overall problem being considered. This will usually involve stating the objective (level 1), the criteria that are important in achieving this objective (level 2), and the alternatives that may be used to achieve the objective, which will comprise different components of the criteria (level 3).…”

Health Technology Assessment is indexed in Index Medicus/MEDLINE and Excerpta Medica/ EMBASE. Copies of the Executive Summaries are available from the NCCHTA website (see opposite). NHS R&D HTA Programme T he NHS R&D Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Programme was set up in 1993 to ensure that high-quality research information on the costs, effectiveness and broader impact of health technologies is produced in the most efficient way for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. Initially, six HTA panels (pharmaceuticals, acute sector, primary and community care, diagnostics and imaging, population screening, methodology) helped to set the research priorities for the HTA Programme. However, during the past few years there have been a number of changes in and around NHS R&D, such as the establishment of the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the creation of three new research programmes: Service Delivery and Organisation (SDO); New and Emerging Applications of Technology (NEAT); and the Methodology Programme. Although the National Coordinating Centre for Health Technology Assessment (NCCHTA) commissions research on behalf of the Methodology Programme, it is the Methodology Group that now considers and advises the Methodology Programme Director on the best research projects to pursue. The research reported in this monograph was funded as project number 96/49/04. The views expressed in this publication are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the Methodology Programme, HTA Programme or the Department of Health. The editors wish to emphasise that funding and publication of this research by the NHS should not be taken as implicit support for any recommendations made by the authors. Criteria for inclusion in the HTA monograph series Reports are published in the HTA monograph series if (1) they have resulted from work commissioned for the HTA Programme, and (2) they are of a sufficiently high scientific quality as assessed by the referees and editors. Reviews in Health Technology Assessment are termed 'systematic' when the account of the search, appraisal and synthesis methods (to minimise biases and random errors) would, in theory, permit the replication of the review by others.

“…This application of the two techniques has been proposed and introduced previously (Olson et al, 1986;Suresh and Kaparthi, 1992;Zakarian and Kusiak, 1999), it has been a very much accepted research and development tool. The development and application of these tool sets to information technology and supply chain management issues has not been realized as frequently in the literature.…”
