COMPARATIVE METHODS SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING (SAW) AND ANALYTICAL HIERARCHY PROCESS (AHP) FOR ELECTION STAFF LABORATORY COMPUTER STMIK WIDYA CIPTA DHARMA SAMARINDA

Abstract

The main tasks of the computer laboratory staff are: practical administration services, preparation of
practicum, recruitment and guidance of computer lab assistants, monitoring and supervising the
implementation of practicum and practice test. Selection of laboratory staff at this time made only direct
appointment by the leadership so the performance of staff is not good because the selected staff not in
accordance with the expertise it has. From these problems will be raised research Comparative Method of
Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) and Analytical Hierarcy Process (AHP) For Selection of Computer
Laboratory Staff In STMIK Widya Cipta Dharma Samarinda. The comparative results resulting from the
Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method and the Analytical Hierartical Process (AHP) method recommend
the appropriate Analytical Hierartical Process (AHP) method in the Selection of laboratory staff, where the
Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) method is considered appropriate to represent natural thinking tend
to group system elements to different levels of each level containing similar elements so it is better to use for
the selection of laboratory staff that involves many criteria with different hierarchy levels. In addition, the
32
AHP method also provides measurement scales and methods to get priority for all hierarchy criteria, since
each criterion has unequal priorities.
