Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods are useful for evaluating several complex factors of multiple selection problems. The Multi-Objective problems are an extension of Single-Objective problems. The goal of MCDM is to help the decision maker to make a choice among a finite number of alternatives or to sort or rank a finite set of alternatives in terms of multiple criteria. Among the MCDM methods, the most widely applied method is TOPSIS. It is applied for different kinds of MCDM problems. In laptop selection process, it is difficult to select better laptop because relatively all laptops are seems to be same. By applying the TOPSIS method to the alternatives it is simple to differentiate the laptops from one another. The better laptop has been selected using TOPSIS based on conflicting criteria such as warranty, size, battery life, specification and others. This methodology also has been evaluated by MCDM evaluation metrics such as Time and Space Complexity, Sensitivity Analysis, ranking reversal and relative closeness coefficient.
