Abstract: The paper deals with the methodology of complex sensitivity analysis of solution given by one
of the popular multiple-criteria decision-making methods, namely the Analytic Hierarchy Process. This
methodology includes evaluation of sensitivity of hierarchy elements local ranking to changes in an
expert pairwise comparison judgments and evaluation of sensitivity of global ranking of decision
alternatives to changes in weights of hierarchy elements. The sensitivity analysis is illustrated on a
problem of evaluation of renewable energy technologies for an eco-house in Ukraine.
Keywords: the analytic hierarchy process, uncertainty of expert pairwise comparison judgments,
sensitivity analysis, stability intervals, critical expert pairwise comparison judgments, critical elements of
a hierarchy.
