Emrouznejad, A. (2010). “SAS/OWA: Ordered weighted averaging in SAS optimization.” Soft Computing 14(4): 379-386. This paper explores the use of the optimization procedures in SAS/OR software with application to the ordered weight averaging (OWA) operators of decision-making units (DMUs). OWA was originally introduced by Yager (IEEE Trans Syst Man Cybern 18(1):183-190, 1988) has gained much …
