Here we define ranking games as a class of n-player normal-form games with a payoff structure reflecting the players' von Neumann Morgenstern preferences over their individual ranks.
In this case study, the performance of the alternatives was quite easy to interpret, but in other cases ranking definition may become more difficult: the fuzzy sets obtained at each level for each alternative may be analysed by measuring the possibility/necessity of their mutual dominance in order to define ranking of alternatives [10, 17, 34, 35].
With Proposition 9, we define ranking method as follows: 1.
With the aim of defining rank of existing world market aircraft the Saaty scale was used for developing the weight of different criteria whilst the improved TOPSIS method is used for ranking six aircraft: A320, A330, A340, B737, B747, B767 based on cabin environmental efficiency and safety.
Both classes are dressed in code: those downstairs are in uniforms as flow-chart specific as those of the military, defining rank at a glance, while the costumes of the upstairs denizens emphasize narrative, history, and, if not creativity, artistry and taste.

We defined rank categories based on relative usage of food items (0 - absent, 1 - complementary, 2 - predominant, 3 - strict), and a rank was attributed to each dietary item for each species (see Additional file 1).
There are no community elders to give guidance, to define and rank the important research goals, or to write recommendation letters to their intellectual offspring.
To define a ranked list of genes significantly expressed in cartilage, a supervised analysis [ 13], comparing cartilage versus non-cartilage gene expression, was employed.
Semi structured interviews, symposium breakout sessions and conference workshops were used to define and rank attributes suggested by curricula design experts from the three disciplines.
This captures, in a unifying framework, a wide range of logics defined for ranked and unranked trees, nested words, and Mazurkiewicz traces that have been studied separately.
