Multiple Attribute Decision Making (MADM) problems are dealing with the priority of alternatives with respect to many attributes. This MADM technique is popularly used in the evaluation of engineering, economics, management science and transportation, etc. However, few studies explored the game approach to resolve a MADM problem. This study innovatively formulates the group MADM problem as a multi-objective game, which is similar to that of Nishizaki and Sakawa. Finally, this special approach is used to rank the factors that impact the business operation in computer industry of Taiwan.
