recently, gasimov and yenilmez proposed an approach for solving two kinds of fuzzy linear programming (flp) problems. through the approach, each flp problem is first defuzzified into an equivalent crisp problem which is non-linear and even non-convex. then, the crisp problem is solved by the use of the modified subgradient method. in this paper we will have another look at the earlier defuzzifi...

In this paper, we construct two fuzzy sets using the notions of level subsets and strong level subsets of a given fuzzy set in a ring R. These fuzzy sets turn out to be identical and provide a universal construction of a fuzzy ideal generated by a given fuzzy set in a ring. Using this construction and employing the technique of strong level subsets, we provide the shortest and direct fuzzy set ...

this paper continues the study of the connection between hyper- groups and fuzzy sets, investigating the length of the sequence of join spaces associated with a hypergroup. the classes of complete hypergroups and of 1-hypergroups are considered and analyzed in this context. finally, we give a method to construct a nite hypergroup with the strong fuzzy grade equal to a given natural number

this paper describes the development of a fuzzy decision support system (fdss) for the assessment of risk in e-commerce (ec) development. a web-based prototype fdss is suggested to assist ec project managers in identifying potential ec risk factors and the corresponding project risks. a risk analysis model for ec development using a fuzzy set approach is proposed and incorporated into the fdss....
