location selection is one of the most important activities in establishment of bank branches. choosing a suitable location have a direct impact on the performance of banks and also facilitating the achievement of other objectives. there are a lot of influential factors on the location selection which are complicated and therefore the traditional methods cannot be used. so we need to have a suit...

This paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (GP) procedure for solving a multiobjective linear plus linear fractional programming problem. In the proposed approach GP model for achievement of the highest membership value of each of fuzzy goal defined for the linear plus linear fractional objectives is formulated. In the solution process, the method of variable change on the underand overdeviat...

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 sam...

supplying required human resource is one of the strategic goals of an organization. therefore, organizations plan and predict the required human resources in order to prevent this problem. present study using practical approach seeks to assist organizations to achieve their various goals in human resources planning. the designed model in this study clarifies vague, inaccurate, and fuzzy express...

Nowadays, customer expectations are increasing and organizations are prone to operate in an uncertain environment. Under this uncertain environment, the ultimate success of the firm depends on its ability to integrate business processes among supply chain partners. Supply chain management emphasizes cross-functional links to improve the competitive strategy of organizations. Now, companies are ...

in this paper the real-world occurrence of the multiple-product multiple-constraint single period newsboy problem with two objectives, in which there is incremental discounts on the purchasing prices, is investigated. the constraints are the warehouse capacity and the batch forms of the order placements. the first objective of this problem is to find the order quantities such that the expected ...
