A selection of suitable sustainability management systems (SMS) is a major part supply chain strategies to create competitive advantage, reduce total costs, and manage long-term sustainability. framework method for prioritizing SMSs are presented in this research. Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) the most common alternative multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM). However, complex information mix...

the fuzzy linear regression model with fuzzy input-output data andcrisp coefficients is studied in this paper. a linear programmingmodel based on goal programming is proposed to calculate theregression coefficients. in contrast with most of the previous works, theproposed model takes into account the centers of fuzzy data as animportant feature as well as their spreads in the procedure ofconstr...

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).

appropriate scheduling and sequencing of tasks on machines is one of the basic and significant problems that a shop or a factory manager encounters; this is why in recent decades extensive studies have been done on scheduling issues. one type of scheduling problems is just-in-time (jit) scheduling and in this area, motivated by jit manufacturing, this study investigates a mathematical model for...

The steeping chip weighting waveforms are used in Multiple Access Interference (MAI) cancellation by emphasizing the received spreading signal, therefore, that allows to solve the problem of orthogonality for the chip waveforms. Our paper presents a useful method based on fuzzy systems to determine the despreading sequences weighted by the steeping chip weighting waveforms for Direct Sequence C...

generally, an engineering design problem has multiple objective functions. some of these problems can be formulated as multiobjective geometric programming models. on the other hand,often in the real world, coefficients of the objective functions are not known precisely. coefficients may be interpreted as fuzzy numbers, which lead to a multiobjective geometric programming with fuzzy parameters....

fuzzy linear programming models and methods has been one ofthe most and well studied topics inside the broad area of soft computing. itsapplications as well as practical realizations can be found in all the real worldareas. in this paper a basic introduction to the main models and methods infuzzy mathematical programming, with special emphasis on those developedby the authors, is presented. as ...

This paper proposes a two-stage fuzzy logarithmic preference programming with multi-criteria decisionmaking, in order to derive the priorities of comparison matrices in the analytic hierarchy pprocess (AHP) and the analytic network process (ANP). The Fuzzy Preference Programming (FPP) proposed by Mikhailov and Singh [L. Mikhailov, M.G. Singh, Fuzzy assessment of priorities with application to c...

Multiple attribute decision making problems with uncertain weights in intuitionistic fuzzy setting are investigated. Some concepts related to the theory of intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS), including intuitionistic fuzzy weighted averaging (IFWA) operator, score function, and accuracy function, are reviewed. Based on the technology for order preference by similarity to idea solution (TOPSIS) meth...
