Abstrakt: Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is based on decision model to measure alternative with shortest distance to positive ideal solution and the farthest distance from negative ideal solution. With growing complexity in decision making, vagueness and uncertainty often exist in human judgement. To manage conflicting criteria, a hierarchy structure in TOPSIS is proposed where the main criteria, sub-criteria, and alternatives are arranged in multi-level. To rate each alternatives, the weight of each criterion is evaluated using linguistic value before converted into fuzzy number as a way to measure the experts opinion. In this paper, we demonstrates our general framework for the development of hierarchal fuzzy TOPSIS. We also highlighted our initial finding on the criteria and alternatives in our case study i.e. selection of decomposition technology for food waste management. It is anticipates our work will contributes better decision making in the related area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
