In this paper, we discuss a decision-making situation under uncertainty related to software creation through Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) based modules. We propose a bi-objective fuzzy optimization model of the COTS selection problem. The proposed optimization model simultaneously maximize the weighted quality and minimize the total cost of a modular software system subject to many limitatio...

This paper presents a new mathematical model for a bi-objective job shop scheduling problem with sequencedependent setup times that minimizes the weighted mean completion time and the weighted mean tardiness time. For solving this multi-objective model, we develop a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (FMOLP) model. In this problem, a proposed FMOLP method is applied with respect to the ov...

Genetic Fuzzy Systems (GFSs) are models capable of integrating accuracy and high comprehensibility in their results. In the case of GFSs for classification, more emphasis has been given to improving the “Genetic” component instead of its “Fuzzy” counterpart. This paper focus on the Fuzzy Inference component to obtain a more accurate and interpretable system, presenting the so-called Genetic Pro...

classical deterministic inventory models consider the demand rate to be either constant or time-dependent but independent from the stock status. however, for a certain type of inventory, the demand rate may be in-fluenced by the stock level. also in many real-life problems, some products such as fruits, vegetables, phar-maceuticals and volatile liquids continuously deteriorate to evaporation, o...

We develop a new decision making model based on the use of a unified approach between the probability, the weighted average and the ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator in an uncertain environment that can be assessed with fuzzy numbers (FNs). We present a new aggregation operator called the fuzzy probabilistic ordered weighted averaging – weighted averaging (FPOWAWA) operator. We study it...

Fuzzy measures can flexibly describe the relative importance of decision criterion as well as their interactions in multicriteria decision making. Based on the diamond pairwise comparison, a new identification method of 2-order additive fuzzy measure is proposed. The relative weight and the interaction degree can be obtained simultaneously for every pair of criteria in the diamond pairwise comp...

In this paper we present some properties concerning non-atomicity of regular null-additive fuzzy set multifunctions. Key–words: fuzzy, null-additive, regular, atom, non-atomic.

abstract it is the purpose of this article to introduce a linear approximation technique for solving a fractional chance constrained programming (cc) problem. for this purpose, a fuzzy goal programming model of the equivalent deterministic form of the fractional chance constrained programming is provided and then the process of defuzzification and linearization of the problem is started. a samp...

this paper proposes a new mathematical model for the integrated procurement-production-distribution problem of a fuzzy mixed integer linear programming (fmilp) type. considering the uncertainty in real problems, a number of parameters such as demand, capacity, and cost where their values are not available or known precisely, have been considered as trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. to solve fuzzy mixe...
