A Novel Method for Fuzzy Measure Identification
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Fuzzy measure and Choquet integral are effective tools for handling complex multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problems in which criteria are inter- dependent. The identification of a fuzzy measure requires the determination of 2n −2 values when the number of criteria is n. The complexity of this problem increases exponentially, which makes

A New Approach for Generating Efficient Solutions Within the Goal Programming Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper deals with the issue of efficiency in the Goal Programming (GP) model. A general approach for the determination of an efficient solution of GP is presented. An efficiency test for the GP solution is developed; moreover, when this solution is not efficient, an efficient solution that dominates it is determinedJournal of the Operational Re
