Now,thefirststepistodevelop,ahierarchybybreakingtheproblemdownintoitscomponents,andthenprioritizingthecomponents,asyou’llsee.
Nowthere’ssomeAHPsoftwareouttherethatletsyoudothemath计算,butI’mnot(失去爆破)gonnagetintothatlevelofdetailnow.TheimportantthingthatIwanttotalkaboutisnotthemathematicsofitsomuchastheconcept.(概念)
I,IwantyoutounderstandthelogicbehindAnalyticHierarchyProcessandthebasicapproach.
OK…souh,let’ssay,ifIwastryingtobuyahouse,ahouseisactuallyaprettygoodexample.It’snotagoodexampleforabusinessclass,necessarily,butit’llcertainlydofortoday.

Well,uhlet’sjustsay,makethebestchoicein,inbuyinganewhouse.Now,nowthat’sthegoal.
Sonowthatyou’veestablishedagoal,youestablishyourcriteria标准.Andum,undercriteriaIwouldlistformewhatweretheimportantfactorsthatwillinfluencethedecision.And…theywouldbethingslikeuh,likethecost.And,uhwhatelse?
Uh,location.Location,Ithink,wouldtypically典型的beoneinmostofourmodels,andmaybeonemore.Howaboutfloorplan?
—Thelayout布局oftherooms.So,sowehavecost,location,floorplan…thosemightbeourkeycriteriaforchoosingahouse.
