Comparison and evaluation of object oriented software languages with analytic hierarchy and analytic network process

The change in software technology has begun with the realization of the benefits of structural programming in 1970s and software development process has gained acceleration with the widening of object oriented programming in 1990s. Object oriented programming is more convenient to produce programs which are more understandable, better organized and easy to analyze, modify, debug. It is in brisk demand today due to many facilities it provides. The reason of preferring this study is the fact that object oriented programming will be the key point in programming methods in the coming years. In this study, it is primarily aimed at determining the priorities among the features that a good programming language should have, finding a tool that will facilitate the choice of programming language and making this program wellarranged. But, choosing the proper programming language is a kind of decision making problem with multiple criterions which requires considering many factors. In this study, problem of the choice of object oriented programming language has been tried to be solved by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Analytic Network Process (ANP), obtained results have been evaluated, compared and their compatibility with this process have been examined. No study with ANP has been encountered for object oriented software languages in literature and with this aspect, this study contains a feature to be the first.
