ABSTRACT

Molodtsov initiated soft set theory as a new general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties. Based on soft set theory, some researchers proposed decision making and normal parameter reduction of soft set. However, up to the present, real-life applications of them are less studied. Consequently, we propose a new framework based on soft set for the practical decision support system. In order to validate the proposed framework, we apply the proposed framework into one practical decision support system. Experimental results show that the proposed framework is not only suitable but feasible for dealing with the practical decision support system.
