Abstract

Diplomatic relations between countries increasingly show how important the meaning of relations between these countries. Representatives are needed in order to establish cooperative relationships in several fields such as culture, politics, and education. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is expected to recommend objective representatives to be placed as foreign diplomats. Finding suitable representatives and the number of representatives to be dispatched in accordance with the criteria and rules that apply in the foreign ministry becomes complicated. With this objective and value-weighted recommendation made, it is easier for superiors in the ministry to make representative selection. The method used is the Multi Attribute Utility Method (MAUT) which can make effective and specific selections. Based on the results of testing of 50 sample data to calculate the selection of foreign diplomats using the MAUT method the results were 94%.

“…MAUT [43] depends on different attributes which have been chosen by the decisionmakers. Sometimes, in MAUT, "objectives" are used in the case of "attributes".…”

“…In this paper, taking uncertainty into account, four different MADM techniques have been discussed and MAUT is one of them. As the preferences are used as the input in this technique, these preferences should be precise [42,43]. This study incorporates this method to solve a sustainable STP model since it can be applied to many fields, namely, agriculture, energy management, finance, and others.…”
