Abstract:

Existing project selection models do not consider the complexity of projects as a selection criterion, while their complexity may prolong the project duration and even result in its failure. In addition, existing models cannot formulate the aggregate complexity of the selected projects. The aggregated complexity is not always equal to summation of complexity of projects because of possible synergies or conflicts between them may increase or decrease the total complexity. In this paper, a model is proposed for measuring the aggregate complexity in the selection of project portfolios. A case study is presented to show the usefulness of the model and its applicability in practice. Moreover, several large-sized numerical examples have been tested showing the capability of the model to solve such problems in logical computational time.

A NEW MULTI-OBJECTIVE OPTIMIZATION APPROACH FOR SUSTAINABLE PROJECT PORTFOLIO SELECTION: A REALWORLD APPLICATION UNDER INTERVAL-VALUED FUZZY ENVIRONMENT

Organizations need to evaluate project proposals and select the ones that are the most effective in reaching the strategic goals by considering sustainability issue. In order to enhance the effectiveness and the efficiency of project oriented organizations, in this paper a new multi-objective decision making (MODM) approach of sustainable project portfolio selection is proposed which applies in...

A fuzzy random multi-objective approach for portfolio selection

In this paper, the portfolio selection problem is considered, where fuzziness and randomness appear simultaneously in optimization process. Since return and dividend play an important role in such problems, a new model is developed in a mixed environment by incorporating fuzzy random variable as multi-objective nonlinear model. Then a novel interactive approach is proposed to determine the pref...

designing a multi-objective stochastic programming model for portfolio selection

in traditional portfolio selection model coefficients often are certain and deterministic, but in real world these coefficients are probabilistic. so decision maker cannot estimate them exactly. financial optimization is one of the most attractive areas in decision under uncertainty. in the portfolio selection problem the decision maker considers simultaneously conflicting objectives such as ra...

A fuzzy multi-objective model for a project management problem

In this research, the multi-objective project management decision problem with fuzzy goals and fuzzy constraints are considered. We constitute α-cut approach and two various fuzzy goal programming solution methods for solving the Multi-Objective Project Management (MOPM) decision problem under fuzzy environments. The Interactive fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (i-FMOLP) and Weighted Ad...

Developing a multi objective possibilistic programming model for portfolio selection problem

Portfolio selection problem is one of the most important issues in the area of financial management in which is attempted to allocate wealth to different assets with controlling the return and risk. The aim of this paper is to obtain the optimum portfolio with regard to the cardinality and threshold constraints. In the paper, a novel multi-objective possibilistic programming model is developed ...
