OpenAlex İngilizce

Industry 4.0 technology has affected almost every sector in the world. Maritime sector is one of them that were affected by this technology. In this study, components of the maritime sector were prioritized to find out which of them should comply with this transformation primarily. Many different criteria were taken into consideration for the solution of such problems. Therefore, multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods required to solve this problem. Fuzzy AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and VIKOR (VlseKriterijumska Optimizacijia I Kompromisno Resenje) hybrid method was employed for revealing the prioritization ranking for maritime sector components. A group of experts assessed and compared 22 criteria and scored them for each alternative. Proposed methodology was employed through the experts’ assessments. Results were displayed and suggestions were given for the further studies
