Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Engenharia de Produção) – Universidade do Estado do Pará, Belém, 2017.https://bibliotecadigitaldetcc.uepa.br/handle/riuepa/676Decision making is something complex that, many times, involves several variables to be studied. For this motive, there are various methods, technical and nontechnical, to organize and support decision making. One of those methods, which is very well known and widely applied in many fields of knowledge is named Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and was created by Thomas L. Saaty. Being an effective and simple to understand tool, the AHP is widely applied in academic works. As a consequence of making calculations with matrixes, the more substantial is the number of criteria and subcriteria, the more complex and demanding the method use becomes. So, to facilitate the application of AHP, it is utilized some software, which are often proprietary and might be inaccessible for the majority of the students that cannot afford a license. Thus, this work aims to develop and validate a computer program that assists decision making through the method AHP by Saaty, and posteriorly made it available with an Open Source license, in a way that anyone can test it, modify it and use it for free. The software was developed in Mint, a Linux distribution, using an IDE called Vim (Vi IMproved), and the algorithm implementation was developed in the Python programming language. To validate the software, it was extracted input data from two works, written by different authors. Then, the outputs generated by the software built in this work were compared to the result found by the other authors in their works. The software managed to solve both satisfactorily, showing that is can calculate an AHP hierarchy with more than one level of criteria.Língua PortuguesaAbertoAnalytic hierarchy processOpen source softwareMulti-criteria decision makingPythonTrabalho de Conclusão de Curso (TCC)
