The paper first makes an analysis on the defects of Saaty's AHP (analytic hierarchy process) method, then puts forward a new additive AHP method including its principle and usage. A practical example on the application of the additive AHP method in Multi-Criteria Decision Making problem is also given. Finally the paper points out that the proposed additive AHP method is more practical and convenient than traditional AHP method.
