Hybrid fuzzy-linear programming approach for multi criteria decision making problems

摘要: The purpose of this paper is to point the usefulness applying a linear mathematical formulation fuzzy multiple criteria objective decision methods in organising business activities. In respect parameters programming are modelled by preference-based membership functions. This begins with an introduction and some related research followed fundamentals set theory technical concepts models. Further real case study manufacturing plant implementation proposed technique presented. Empirical results clearly show superiority optimising individual functions when compared non-fuzzy approach. Furthermore, for problem considered, optimal solution helps infer that incorporating fuzziness model either constraints, or both provides similar (or even better) level satisfaction obtained programming.
