Abstract
Abstract
This paper proposes an extension of the ARAS method which, due to the use of interval-valued fuzzy numbers, can be more appropriate for solving real-world problems. In order to overcome the complexity of real-world decision-making problems, the proposed extension also includes the use of linguistic variables and a group decision making approach. In order to highlight the proposed methodology an example of a faculty websites evaluation is considered.
