Abstract :

  Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) is a sub-discipline of Operations Research which deals with decision problems under the presence of a number of criteria. A typical MCDM problem involves the evaluation of a set of alternatives in terms of a set of decision criteria. Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is one of the popular multi-criteria decision-making method. It is based on the concept that the best alternative should have the shortest distance from the ideal solution and the farthest distance from the negative ideal solution. In this paper we have described TOPSIS method to determine the preference order of the set of smart phones based on their various features.
