Multiple Objective Linear Programming in Supporting Forest Management
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper gives a brief introduction into multiple objective linear programming and discusses its possibilities in the area of forest management. We overview basic concepts, formulations, and principles of solving multiple objective linear programming problems. As such problems s always require the intervention of a decision-maker behavioral aspectsare also considered. We use an application by Chang and Buongiorno [1981] to illustrate how a reference direction approach developed for multiple objective linear programming can be used to deal with a forest management problem.

A Chance Constrained Multiple Objective Goal Programming Model of Fuzzy QFD and FMEA: Model Development
There are varieties of QFD combination forms available that can help management to choose the right model for his/her types of problem. The proposed MOCC-QFD-FMEA model is a right model to include variety of objectives as well as the risk factors into the model of the problem. Due to the fact that the model also takes into consideration the concept of Fuzzy set, it further allows management...
متن کاملFuzzy Multi-Objective Linear Programming for Project Management Decision under Uncertain Environment with AHP Based Weighted Average Method
Smooth implementation and controlling conflicting goals of a project with the usage of all related resources through organization is inherently a complex task to management. At the same time deterministic models are never efficient in practical project management (PM) decision problems because the related parameters are frequently fuzzy in nature. The project execution time is a major concern o...
متن کاملFuzzy multiple objective programming techniques in modeling forest planning
In many cases it is under legislative mandate to manage publicly owned forest resources for multiple uses (i.e., timber production, hunting, grazing). Forest resources have some particular characteristics which make rather difficult their management. In fact they are a typical example of a joint production (market and social goods) and therefore every management policy must face tradeoffs betwe...

This paper presents a novel approach to achieving the goals of data envelopment analysis in the process of reconstruction and integration of decision-making units by using multiple objective linear programming. In this regard, first, we review inverse data envelopment analysis models for data reconstruction and integration. We present a model with multi-objective linear programming structure in...
