Decision Support System for High Achieving Students Selection Using AHP and TOPSIS

摘要

The selection of high-achieving students is one of the schools' efforts to determine potential students who will be prepared to participate in the section of high achieving students at the regional, provincial, national, and international levels. Manual selection activities can have several problems, including it can take a lot of time when many criteria must be used, and many students participate in the selection, and there can be subjective assessments from the selection committee. Based on those problems, a decision support system is proposed using AHP to determine the weight of the criteria and TOPSIS to determine the best alternative. Decision support systems using AHP and TOPSIS can assist the selection committee in selecting high achieving students. The application of a decision support system using AHP and TOPSIS in this study can also resolve problems such as reducing the time required for the selection process and making the selection results more objective.
