in this paper we try to introduce a new approach and study the notion of efficiency under a multi objectives linear programming problem in the university by using analysis of hierarchy process (ahp)‎. ‎to this end‎, ‎we first extract some effective parameters due to efficiency offices in university and then prioritized these parameters by the ahp method‎. ‎hence‎, ‎we could classify the most im...

decisions relating to most irrigation-planning problems need to be made in the face of hydrologic uncertainties, which make the irrigation-planning problem more complex. the uncertainties can be tackled by formulating the problem as fuzzy linear programming (flp). in the present study, single objective fuzzy linear programming (soflp) irrigation planning model was formulated for deriving the op...

The multi-level programming problems are attractive for many researchers because of their application in several areas such as economic, traffic, finance, management, transportation, information technology, engineering and so on. It has been proven that even the general bi-level programming problem is an NP-hard problem, so the multi-level problems are practical and complicated problems therefo...

Nowadays, interval comparison matrices (ICM) take an important role in decision making under uncertainty. So it seems that a brief review on solution methods used in ICM should be useful. In this paper, the common methods are divided into four categories that are Goal Programming Method (GPM), Linear Programming Method (LPM), Non-Linear Programming Method (NLPM) and Statistic Analysis (SA). GPM...

in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy linear bilevel programming (fflblp) problems by representing all the parameters as triangular fuzzy numbers. in the proposed method, the given fflblp problem is decomposed into three crisp linear programming (clp) problems with bounded variables constraints, the three clp problems are solved separately and...

optimal allocation of water resources is an essential service in agriculture that must be considered by farmers. one of the most significant factors in optimal allocation of water resources in agriculture is to define optimal farm cropping pattern. in this study, in order to determine optimal cropping pattern and water resources allocation in central district of mashhad city (toos village), the...
