The main method of solving multi-objective programming is changing multi-objective programming problem into single objective programming problem, and then get Pareto optimal solution. Conversely, whether all Pareto optimal solutions can be obtained through appropriate method, generally the answer is negative. In this paper, the methods of norm ideal point and membership function are used to sol...

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to extend the TOPSIS (Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method for solving multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problems with trapezoid fuzzy linguistic variables. To begin with, this paper introduces the concept of the trapezoid fuzzy linguistic variables, and defines the distance between two trapezoid fuzzy linguistic v...

investigation of desertification trend requires an understanding of phenomena that create changes singly or action and reaction together in an area that these changes were led to the desertification and land degradation. in the investigation of pedological criterion affecting on land degradation in alluvial fans, first, the map of units was created by overlaying and crossing maps of slope class...

The paper investigates a technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method to solve multi-attribute decision making problems with bipolar neutrosophic information. We define Hamming distance function and Euclidean distance function to determine the distance between bipolar neutrosophic numbers. In the decision making situation, the rating of performance values of th...

Considering the fact that, in some cases, determining precisely the exact value of attributes is difficult and that their values can be considered as fuzzy data, this paper extends the TOPSIS method for dealing with fuzzy data, and an algorithm for determining the best choice among all possible choices when the data are fuzzy is also presented. In this approach, to identify the fuzzy ideal solu...

in this paper, we introduce a new generalization of weakly prime ideals called $i$-prime. suppose $r$ is a commutative ring with identity and $i$ a fixed ideal of $r$. a proper ideal $p$ of $r$ is $i$-prime if for $a, b in r$ with $ab in p-ip$ implies either $a in p$ or $b in p$. we give some characterizations of $i$-prime ideals and study some of its properties.  moreover, we give conditions  ...

For P a poset or lattice, let Id(P ) denote the poset, respectively, lattice, of upward directed downsets in P, including the empty set, and let id(P ) = Id(P )−{∅}. This note obtains various results to the effect that Id(P ) is always, and id(P ) often, “essentially larger” than P. In the first vein, we find that a poset P admits no <-respecting map (and so in particular, no one-to-one isotone...

This paper shows that any compactly generated lattice is a subdirect product of subdirectly irreducible lattices which are complete and upper continuous. An example of a compactly generated lattice which cannot be subdirectly decomposed into subdirectly irreducible compactly generated lattices is given. In the case of an ideal lattice of a lattice L, the decomposition into subdirectly irreducib...

With daily development of information technology supply chain of service-based organizations like financial institutions and the increased value of outsourced activities, also the importance of customer satisfaction, outsourced affairs must have done by the suppliers who have the ability of accomplishing the organizational demands. To mitigate the risk of invalid supplier selections, verificati...

The adsorption and separation behavior of SO2-CO2, SO2-N2 and CO2-N2 binary mixtures in bundles of aligned double-walled carbon nanotubes is investigated using the grand-canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) method and ideal adsorbed solution theory. Simulations were performed at 303 K with nanotubes of 3 nm inner diameter and various intertube distances. The results showed that the packing with an inte...
