interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets (ivifss) are widely used to handle uncertainty and imprecision in decision making. however, in more complicated environment, it is difficult to express the uncertain information by an ivifs with considering the decision-making preference. hence, this paper proposes a group generalized interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy soft set (g-givifss) which conta...

supplier evaluation and selection is complex which caused by the dynamic and fuzzy environment. current mcdm methods do not consider the nature of the environment that can affect the process of evaluation and ranking. the aim of this study is to propose a dynamic fuzzy hybrid mcdm method for evaluation, ranking and selection. the proposed method employs fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fahp) f...

We introduce a new notion of fuzzy r -interior which is an extension of Chang’s fuzzy interior. Using fuzzy r -interior, we define fuzzy r -semiopen sets and fuzzy r semicontinuous maps which are generalizations of fuzzy semiopen sets and fuzzy semicontinuous maps in Chang’s fuzzy topology, respectively. Some basic properties of fuzzy r -semiopen sets and fuzzy r -semicontinuous maps are invest...

The fuzzy logic concept provides a natural way of dealing with problems in which the source of imprecision is an absence of sharply defined criteria rather than the presence of random variables. The fuzzy approach considers cases where uncertainties play a role in the control mechanism of the concerned phenomena. Fuzzy modeling includes fuzzification, fuzzy analysis and defuzzification. In this...

Negative-positive-neutral logic provides an alternative framework for fuzzy cognitive maps development and decision analysis. This paper reviews basic notion of NPN logic and NPN relations and proposes adaptive approach to causality weights assessment. It employs linguistic models of causality weights activated by measurement-based fuzzy cognitive maps’ concepts values. These models allow for q...

Typically, complex systems such as socio-ecological systems are ambiguous and ill-defined due to human-environment interactions. These systems could be participatory systems which involve many participants with different levels of knowledge and experience. The various perceptions of the participants may need to be combined to get a comprehensive understanding and useful knowledge of the system....

migration of virtual machine (vm) is a critical challenge in cloud computing. the process to move vms or applications from one physical machine (pm) to another is known as vm migration. in vm migration several issues should be considered. one of the major issues in vm migration problem is selecting an appropriate pm as a destination for a migrating vm. to face this issue, several approaches are...
