recently, lotfi et al. [10] established an equivalence model between the output-oriented dual ccr model and multiple objective linear programming (molp) and used an interactive method for finding target unit on efficiency frontier such that the decision maker preferences can be taken into account. however their method is not applicable for situations in which some outputs are undesirable and ne...

in this paper, an optimization problem with a linear objective function subject to a consistent finite system of fuzzy relation inequalities using the max-product composition is studied. since its feasible domain is non-convex, traditional linear programming methods cannot be applied to solve it. we study this problem and capture some special characteristics of its feasible domain and optimal s...

We introduce in this paper a new starting mechanism for multiple-objective linear programming (MOLP) algorithms. This makes it possible to start an algorithm from any solution in objective space. The original problem is first augmented in such a way that a given starting solution is feasible. The augmentation is explicitly or implicitly controlled by one parameter during the search process, whi...
