KW -  hesitant fuzzy sets, multiple attribute decision making,  HFWOWA operator. 

AB -  The  weighted  ordered  weighted  averaging(WOWA)  operator  introduced  by  Torra  is  an 
important  aggregation  technique,  which  includes  the  famous  weighted  averaging(WA)  operator  and  the 
ordered weighted averaging(OWA) operator as special cases. In this paper, we introduce a new hesitant fuzzy 
decision making technique called the hesitant fuzzy weighted OWA(HFWOWA) operator. It is an extension 
of the WOWA operator with the uncertain information represented as hesitant fuzzy numbers.It is shown that 
many existing hesitant fuzzy aggregation operators are the special cases of our proposed operator. We also 
study some of its main properties, such as commutativity, monotonicity and boundary.Moreover, an approach 
is  proposed  for  multiple  attribute  decision  making  based  on  the  proposed  operator.  Finally,  an  example  is 
given to illustrate the developed method.
