We present a methodology for characterization and an approach for computing the solutions of fuzzy linear systems with LR fuzzy variables. As solutions, notions of exact and approximate solutions are considered. We transform the fuzzy linear system into a corresponding linear crisp system and a constrained least squares problem. If the corresponding crisp system is incompatible, then the fuzzy ...

In this paper we study a genetic fuzzy system approach to assess suitable bidding strategies for agents in online auction environments. Assessing efficient bidding strategies allows evaluation of auction models and verification whether the mechanism design achieves its goals. Day-ahead electricity auctions are particularly explored to give an experimental instance of the approach developed in t...

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...
