the intuitionistic fuzzy set has been applied to game theory very rarely since it was introduced by atanassov in 1983. the aim of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving matrix games with payoffs of atanassov’s triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns). in this methodology, the concepts and ranking order relations of atanassov’s tifns are defined. a pair of bi-object...

decentralization allows channel members to make their decisions, independently. in this decentralized channels, members may have different power to make its decisions. hence, decisions of each member may influence on the other members’ decisions. to model such situations, bi-level programming models are useful. in this study, a supply chain including one manufacturer and multiple competitive re...

in this paper, the staff assignment problem considering cross-training of caregivers in health care systems is addressed to determine which staff should be cross-trained for each service and how they should be assigned to services. a bi-objective non-linear mathematical programming model is presented where the first objective function aims to minimize workload balancing, cross-training as well ...

we present a new model and a new approach for solving fuzzylinear programming (flp) problems with various utilities for the satisfactionof the fuzzy constraints. the model, constructed as a multi-objective linearprogramming problem, provides flexibility for the decision maker (dm), andallows for the assignment of distinct weights to the constraints and the objectivefunction. the desired solutio...

the problem of staff scheduling at a truck hub for loading and stripping of the trucks is an important and difficult problem to optimize the labor efficiency and cost. the trucks enter the hub at different hours a day, in different known time schedules and operating hours. in this paper, we propose a goal programming to maximize the labor efficiency via minimizing the allocation cost. the propo...

in this paper, the cost and income efficiency models have been considered with regard to the multiple objective programming structures. for finding the efficient points in purposed molp problem, some various methods like lexicography & the weighted sum can be used. so by introducing the molp problem the cost & income efficiencies will be achieved. in the present study, the molp problem ...
