in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy linear programming (abbreviated to fflp) problems. also, we employ linear programming (lp) with equality constraints to find a nonegative fuzzy number vector x which satisfies ax =b, where a is a fuzzy number matrix. then we investigate the existence of a positive solution of fully fuzzy linear system (ffls).

In this work we study approximation algorithms for the Bounded Color Matching problem (a.k.a. Restricted Matching problem) which is defined as follows: given a graph in which each edge e has a color ce and a profit pe ∈ Q, we want to compute a maximum (cardinality or profit) matching in which no more than wj ∈ Z edges of color cj are present. This kind of problems, beside the theoretical intere...

zinc is the first modelling language which supports solver and technique independence. this means that a high level conceptual model can be automatically mapped into an appropriate low level design model for a specific solver or technique. to date, zinc uses three different techniques to solve a model: constraint programming (cp), local search (ls), and mixed integer programming (mip). in this ...

In this paper, two-person matrix games is considered whose elements of pay-off matrix are triangular fuzzy numbers (TFNs). To solve such game a new method based on α-cut of TFN is developed for each of the players. In this method, two auxiliary bi-objective linear programming (BOLP) models are derived. Then using average weighted approach these two BOLP models are decomposed into two auxiliary ...

in this paper, we study the classical sensitivity analysis when the right - hand – side vector, and the coefficients of the objective function are allowed to vary.

In this paper, we propose a new model for designing integrated forward/reverse logistics based on pricing policy in direct and indirect sales channel. The proposed model includes producers, disposal center, distributers and final customers. We assumed that the location of final customers is fixed. First, a deterministic mixed integer linear programming model is developed for integrated logistic...

in this study, a bi-objective model for integrated planning of production-distribution in a multi-level supply chain network with multiple product types and multi time periods is presented. the supply chain network including manufacturers, distribution centers, retailers and final customers is proposed. the proposed model minimizes the total supply chain costs and transforming time of products ...

This paper develops a decentralized leader-follower game for network design of a competitive supply chain problem in which a new chain as the leader enters a market with one existing supply chain as a follower. Both chains produce an identical product, customer demand is inelastic and customer utility function is based on Huff gravity-based model. The leader wants to shape his network and set a...
