A goal programming approach for determining the force structure of naval surface groups using the analytic hierarchy process.

A goal programming approach for determining the force structure of naval surface groups using the analytic hierarchy process.

A methodology for determining the force structure of naval surface groups is developed. A survey of naval surface officers is used to determine a surface ship's relative superiority over the others with respect to several factors (e.g., speed, warfare capabilities, and fuel consumption). The An...
