The main aim of this paper is to deal with a fuzzy version of Farkas lemma involving trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. In turns to that the fuzzy linear programming and duality theory on these problems can be used to provide a constructive proof for Farkas lemma. Keywords Farkas Lemma, Fuzzy Linear Programming, Duality, Ranking Functions.

In this paper, a direct solution method that is based on ranking methods of fuzzy numbers and tabu search is proposed to solve fuzzy multi-objective aggregate production planning problem. The parameters of the problem are defined as triangular fuzzy numbers. During problem solution four different fuzzy ranking methods are employed/tested. One of the primary objectives of this study is to show t...

The inconsistency of judgments in the fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a crucial issue. To make the appropriate decision, the inconsistency in decision maker's (DM) judgments needs to be eliminated or reduced. This paper proposes two mathematical models to deal with inconsistency in Fuzzy AHP. In the first model, the DM's judgments are modified where the preference order of the DM's ju...

Examination Timetable Problem (ETP) is NP–Hard combinatorial optimization problem. It has received tremendous research attention during the past few years given its wide use in universities. ETP can be defined as assignment of courses to be examined, candidates to time periods and examination rooms while satisfying a set of constraints which may be either hard or soft. Several methods have been...

a real-time optimization (rto) strategy incorporating the fuzzy sets theory is developed, where the problem constraints obtained from process considerations are treated in fuzzy environment. furthermore, the objective function is penalized by a fuzzified form of the key process constraints. to enable using conventional optimization techniques, the resulting fuzzy optimization problem is then re...

in this paper the real-world occurrence of the multiple-product multiple-constraint single period newsboy problem with two objectives, in which there is incremental discounts on the purchasing prices, is investigated. the constraints are the warehouse capacity and the batch forms of the order placements. the first objective of this problem is to find the order quantities such that the expected ...

Abstract In this paper we have investigated a fuzzy linear programming problem with fuzzy quantities which are LR triangular fuzzy numbers. The given linear programming problem is rearranged according to the satisfactory level of constraints using breaking point method. By considering the constraints, the arranged problem has been investigated for all optimal solutions connected with satisf...

Demand for high software reliability requires rigorous testing followed by requirement of robust modeling techniques for software quality prediction. On one side, firms have to steadily manage the reliability by testing it vigorously, the optimal release time determination is their biggest concern. In past many models have been developed and much research has been devoted towards assessment of ...

Recently, fuzzy linear programming problems have been considered by many. In the literature of fuzzy linear programming several models are offered and therefore some various methods have been suggested to solve these problems. One of the most important of these problems that recently has been considered; are Fully Fuzzy Linear Programming (FFLP), which all coefficients and variables of the prob...
