Implementation of Equal Width Interval Discretization on SMARTER Method for Selecting Computer Laboratory Assistant

The existence of Computer Laboratory Assistant is so important in supporting the teaching and learning process due to the limitations of lecturers in handling technical problems at the Computer Laboratory and the number of students are taught. This is the basis of the importance of selecting a truly competent Computer Laboratory Assistant. Therefore, in this study, the researchers applied the equal width discretization technique on continuous attributes to improve the test results on the SMARTER (Simple Multi Attribute Rating Technique Exploiting Rank) method and provide recommendations to decision makers in selecting computer lab assistants according to relevant criteria, such as English test results, academic potential test results, lab test results, interview results, recommendation results from laboratory head and semester. The results of this study states that from 10 applicant data that made alternative, stated 10 alternatives in accordance with the actual results with an accuracy of 100%.
