Correction to: Development of a Fuzzy Multi-Objective Heuristic Model for Optimum Water Allocation

A new approach for solving fuzzy multi-objective quadratic programming of water resource allocation problem

A fuzzy multi-objective model for a project management problem

In this research, the multi-objective project management decision problem with fuzzy goals and fuzzy constraints are considered. We constitute α-cut approach and two various fuzzy goal programming solution methods for solving the Multi-Objective Project Management (MOPM) decision problem under fuzzy environments. The Interactive fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (i-FMOLP) and Weighted Ad...

A Multi-objective Hierarchical Location-allocation Model for the Healthcare Network Design Considering a Referral System

This paper presents a multi-objective and multi-service location-allocation model with capacity planning to design a healthcare facilities network through considering a referral system. Therefore, a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model containing two objective functions is proposed. The first objective function is  relates to minimization of total opening cost, minimization of tota...

Multi-objective Hyper-heuristic Approaches for Space Allocation and Timetabling

An important issue in multi-objective optimisation is how to ensure that the obtained non-dominated set covers the Pareto front as widely as possible. A number of techniques (e.g. weight vectors, niching, clustering, cellular structures, etc.) have been proposed in the literature for this purpose. In this paper we propose a new approach to address this issue in multi-objective combinatorial opt...

Solving a new bi-objective model for a cell formation problem considering labor allocation by multi-objective particle swarm optimization

Mathematical programming and artificial intelligence (AI) methods are known as the most effective and applicable procedures to form manufacturing cells in designing a cellular manufacturing system (CMS). In this paper, a bi-objective programming model is presented to consider the cell formation problem that is solved by a proposed multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO). The model c...
