Here, we consider single vendor-buyer model with multi-product and multi-customer and multi-facility location-production-distribution problem. It is assumed that the players of the supply chain are coordinated by sharing information. Vendor manufactures produce different products at different plants with limited capacities and then distribute the products to the consumers according to determini...

The proper ratio decision of sintering burden is a significant section for both of decreasing sintering costs and increasing quality of iron. At present most company in China take the Fixed-ratio method and linear programming (LP) model to calculate the proper ratio for sintering. The former is the performance appraisal method for production cost management of iron. The latter is to use maths m...

For some management programming problems, multiple objectives to be optimized rather than a single objective, and objectives can be expressed with ratio equations such as return/investment, operating profit/net-sales, profit/manufacturing cost, etc. In this paper, we proposed the transformation characteristics to solve the multi objective linear fractional programming (MOLFP) problems. If a MOL...

The problem resulting from a goal programming problem with linear fractional criteria is not easy to solve due to the non-linear constraints inherent in its formulation. This paper introduces a simple and reliable test to establish whether a linear fractional goal programming problem has solutions that verify all goals and, if so, how to find them by solving a linear programming problem. This p...

Multi objective quadratic fractional programming (MOQFP) problem involves optimization of several objective functions in the form of a ratio of numerator and denominator functions which involve both contains linear and quadratic forms with the assumption that the set of feasible solutions is a convex polyhedral with a nite number of extreme points and the denominator part of each of the objecti...
