Abstract: The reliance on experts' decision is considered a very efficient solution especially in case of ill-structured and vague decision making situations. This necessitates being able to identify the expert or experts group whose decision must be particularly assigned a greater weight or importance. This paper is concerned with a method of how to determine the weights of a group of expert decision makers, taking into account the vagueness associated with such evaluation.
