The problem of solving a multi-objective programming problem, by assuming that the decision maker has fuzzy goals for each of the objectives, is addressed. In this case a fuzzy goal programming problem has to be solved. But when we have several objectives it can be a difficult task for the decision maker to determine coherent aspiration levels, so it is possible that the tolerance thresholds be...

This paper will investigate the optimum portfolio for an investor, taking into account 5 criteria. The mean variance model of portfolio optimization that was introduced by Markowitz includes two objective functions; these two criteria, risk and return do not encompass all of the information about investment; information like annual dividends, S&P star ranking and return in later years which is ...

supplying required human resource is one of the strategic goals of an organization. therefore, organizations plan and predict the required human resources in order to prevent this problem. present study using practical approach seeks to assist organizations to achieve their various goals in human resources planning. the designed model in this study clarifies vague, inaccurate, and fuzzy express...

Goal programming is a technique often used in engineering design activities primarily to find a compromised solution which will simultaneously satisfy a number of design goals. In solving goal programming problems, classical methods reduce the multiple goal-attainment problem into a single objective of minimizing a weighted sum of deviations from goals. Moreover, in tackling non-linear goal pro...

In practice, there are many problems which decision parameters are fuzzy numbers, and some kind of this problems are formulated as either possibilitic programming or multi-objective programming methods. In this paper, we consider a multi-objective programming problem with fuzzy data in constraints and introduce a new approach for solving these problems base on a combination of the multi-objecti...

abstract soil nutrient management with efficient fertilizer use has an important role on maximizing yield and environmental effects. in this study game theory is applied to identify the nutrient proportion for corn production in kooshkak in fars province, iran, in 2008-2009. cost of fertilizer combinations and production of corn are the players of the game. a goal programming was applied to obt...

determination a sequence of extracting ore is one of the most important problems in mine annual production scheduling. production scheduling affects mining performance especially in a poly-metallic open pit mine with considering the imposed operational and physical constraints mandated by high levels of reliability in relation to the obtained actual results. one of the important operational con...
