Abstract

With incorrect decision, the efficiency and effectiveness of an organization may degrade therefore decision making for an employee continuance or removal from an organization is a critical issue. There is a need for certain algorithm, tools, techniques etc which can provide precise and accurate information for the performance analysis and decision making. This paper presents a method for performance analysis of faculty members which has given us more precised and accurate results. This analysis is divided into three parts i.e. input fuzzification, rule evaluation and defuzzification. All the steps have been tested on a number of faculty members and the experimental results have demonstrated a fast, robust, and reliable analysis simulation. The faculty performance analysis inputs are taken as “Feedback from students”, “Self-development effort“, “proficiency in teaching” and “management feedback”. The output is obtained in term of “overall performance” of the faculty which is utilized as standard for decision making. The proposed performance analysis technique is simulated using fuzzyTECH 5.7 developed by Inform Software Corporation.
