The numerical method for solving the fuzzy linear programming problems with fuzzydecision variables is proposed in this paper. The difficulty for solving this kind of problem is thatthe decision variables are assumed to be nonnegative fuzzy numbers instead of nonnegative realnumbers. In other words, the decision variables are assumed to be membership functions. One of thepurposes of this paper is to derive the analytic formula of error estimation regarding the approximateoptimal solution. On the other hand, the existence of optimal solutions is also studied in this paper.Finally we present two numerical examples to demonstrate the usefulness of the numerical method.

Recently, new methods have been recommended to solve fully fuzzy linear programming (FFLP) issues. Likewise, the present study examines a new approach to solve FFLP issues through fuzzy decision parameters and variables using triangular fuzzy numbers. The strategy, which is based on alpha-cut theory and modified triangular fuzzy numbers, is suggested to obtain the optimal fully fuzzy solution for real-world problems. In this method, the problem is considered as a fully fuzzy problem and then is solved by applying the new definition presented for the triangular fuzzy number to optimize decision variables and the objective function. Several numerical examples are solved to illustrate the above method.

In this paper, we concentrate on two kinds of fuzzy linear programming problems: linear programming problems with only fuzzy resource variables and linear programming problems in which both the resource variables and the technological coefficients are fuzzy numbers. We consider here only the case of fuzzy numbers with modified s-curve membership functions. We propose here the modified s-curve membership function as a methodology for fuzzy linear programming and use it for solving these problems. We also compare the new proposed method with non-fuzzy linear programming optimization method. Finally, we provide real life application examples in production planning and their numerical solutions.

This paper finds solutions to the fuzzy linear program where some parameters are fuzzy numbers. In practice, there are many problems in which all decision parameters are fuzzy numbers, and such problems are usually solved by either probabilistic programming or multi objective programming methods. Unfortunately all these methods have shortcomings. In this paper, using the concept of comparison of fuzzy numbers, the author introduces a very effective method for solving these problems. This paper extends linear programming based problem in fuzzy environment. With the problem assumptions, the optimal solution can still be theoretically solved using the simplex based method. To handle the fuzzy decision variables can be initially generated and then solved and improved sequentially using the fuzzy decision approach by introducing robust ranking technique. The model is illustrated with an application and a post optimal analysis approach is obtained. The proposed procedure was programmed with MATLAB (R2009a) version software, the four dimensional slice diagram is represented to the application. Finally, numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results, and to gain additional managerial insights.

The present paper aims to propose an alternative solution approach in obtaining the fuzzy optimal solution to a fuzzy linear programming problem with variables given as fuzzy numbers with minimum uncertainty. In this paper, the fuzzy linear programming problems with variables given as fuzzy numbers is transformed into equivalent interval linear programming problems with variables given as interval numbers. The solutions to these interval linear programming problems with variables given as interval numbers are then obtained with the help of linear programming technique. A set of six random numerical examples has been solved using the proposed approach.
