چکیده

Generalizations of the well-known simplex method for linear programming are available to solve the piecewise linear programming problem and the linear fractional programming problem. In this paper we consider a further generalization of the simplex method to solve piecewise linear fractional programming problems unifying the simplex method for linear programs, piecewise linear programs, and the linear fractional programs. Computational results are presented to obtain further insights into the behavior of the algorithm on random test problems. 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Close interval approximation of piecewise quadratic fuzzy numbers for fuzzy fractional program

  The fuzzy approach has undergone a profound structural transformation in the past few decades. Numerous studies have been undertaken to explain fuzzy approach for linear and nonlinear programs. While, the findings in earlier studies have been conflicting, recent studies of competitive situations indicate that fractional programming problem has a positive impact on comparative scenario. We pro...

The Simplex Algorithm Extended to Piecewise-Linearly Constrained Problems

We present an extension of the Simplex method for solving problems with piecewise-linear functions of individual variables within the constrains of otherwise linear problems. This work generalizes a previous work of Fourer that accommodate piecewise-linear terms in objective functions. The notion of nonbasic variable is extended to a variable fixed at a breakpoint. This new algorithm was implem...

An iterative method for tri-level quadratic fractional programming problems using fuzzy goal programming approach

Tri-level optimization problems are optimization problems with three nested hierarchical structures, where in most cases conflicting objectives are set at each level of hierarchy. Such problems are common in management, engineering designs and in decision making situations in general, and are known to be strongly NP-hard. Existing solution methods lack universality in solving these types of pro...

Modified FGP approach and MATLAB program for solving multi-level linear fractional programming problems

In this paper, we present modified fuzzy goal programming (FGP) approach and generalized MATLAB program for solving multi-level linear fractional programming problems (ML-LFPPs) based on with some major modifications in earlier FGP algorithms. In proposed modified FGP approach, solution preferences by the decision makers at each level are not considered and fuzzy goal for the decision vectors i...

Chained Vector Simplex

An algorithm for solving linear programming problems whose matrix of coefficients contains a large number of "zero" entries is studied. This algorithm is more useful when it is generated as a sub-program in a real-time program. The singly linked lists for storing only the non-zero entries of the coefficients matrix is used. The modified Revised Simplex Method is also used for solving such probl...
