a shortest path problem is a practical issue in networks for real-world situations. this paper addresses the fuzzy shortest path (fsp) problem to obtain the best fuzzy path among fuzzy paths sets. for this purpose, a new efficient algorithm is introduced based on a new definition of ideal fuzzy sets (ifss) in order to determine the fuzzy shortest path. moreover, this algorithm is developed for ...

multi-criteria shortest path problems (mspp) are called as np-hard. for mspps, a unique solution for optimizing all the criteria simultaneously will rarely exist in reality. algorithmic and approximation schemes are available to solve these problems; however, the complexity of these approaches often prohibits their implementation on real-world applications. this paper describes the development ...

supplier selection is one of the critical activities for firms to gain competitive advantage and achieve the objectives of the whole supply chain. in this paper based on a dea-topsis method for madm problems a flexible strategy for supplier selection is introduced

Multi-criteria shortest path problems (MSPP) are called as NP-Hard. For MSPPs, a unique solution for optimizing all the criteria simultaneously will rarely exist in reality. Algorithmic and approximation schemes are available to solve these problems; however, the complexity of these approaches often prohibits their implementation on real-world applications. This paper describes the development ...

abstract tax is one of the main sources of financing government budget. therefore, having a clear picture about the attainable amount of taxes are not only necessary for optimal allocation of scarce resources for tax collection, but also helps the government to develop precise tax collection programs .in this article, the structural features of the tax revenues series have first been examined i...

in this paper a fuzzy analytical network process model for supporting the vendor selection process in strategic situations is suggested. first, the vendor evaluation problem is putting together by use of the multi-criteria decision-making (mcdm) approach and a five-step hybrid process, which incorporates the technique of fuzzy analytical network process. then the modified topsis (technique for ...
