−	The software decisoes+simples is a good and free software to create and analyzing decisions using AHP. Its available on the site http://www2.bcc.unifal-mg.edu.br/ahp
	Rather than prescribing a "correct" decision, the AHP helps decision makers find one that best suits their goal and their understanding of the problem. It provides a comprehensive and rational framework for structuring a decision problem, for representing and quantifying its elements, for relating those elements to overall goals, and for evaluating alternative solutions.
