Penerapan Preference Selection Index (PSI) dalam Seleksi Siswa Program Pertukaran Pelajar

Abstract

This student exchange program is one of the routine programs of the Medan city government which is carried out every year, in order to improve higher quality education as well as establish international cooperative relations between cities. This student exchange program has provided many benefits in the field of education such as adding insight, exchanging information about science and technology as well as promoting the State of Indonesia, especially the city of Medan to foreign countries. With this program, of course, the Medan Mayor's Office has problems in determining decisions for students from schools to be sent, representing Indonesia to foreign countries. To overcome this, a system is needed that is able to support the decisions of the Head of the Cooperation Relations Section in determining the best students to represent the city of Medan abroad. One method that can be applied to computer-based decision support is the Preference Selection Index (PSI) method as a method in the Decision Support System (DSS) which is able to produce the best decisions from several alternatives based on existing criteria
