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...

in this research, we address the application of uncertaintyprogramming to design a multi-site, multi-product, multi-period,closed-loop supply chain (clsc) network. in order to make theresults of this article more realistic, a clsc for a case study inthe iron and steel industry has been explored. the presentedsupply chain covers three objective functions: maximization ofprofit, minimization of n...

since the emergence of power market, the target of power generating utilities has mainly switched from cost minimization to revenue maximization. they dispatch their power energy generation units in the uncertain environment of power market. as a result, multi-stage stochastic programming has been applied widely by many power generating agents as a suitable tool for dealing with self-scheduling...

The benefits of goal Programming (GP) over linear programming (LP) are mentioned inside the context healthcare industry. Decision-makers ought to provide substantial attention method a GP model. However, long‐ and short‐time period answers no longer be careworn. Answers also require implementations, which can impractical or tough. whole utilization centers is usually recommended in try less...

background operating room (or) planning involves the creation of a “master surgical schedule” in which surgeons are assigned to specific operating rooms (ors) on specific days of a week. the master schedule is typically one or two weeks long repeatable for several months. objectives the purpose of this study was to recommend using a mathematical program to generate a rotation in a way that the ...
