Fuzzy programming with fuzzy decisions and fuzzy simulation-based genetic algorithm

This paper provides a spectrum of chance-constrained programming as well as chance-constrained multiobjective programming and chance-constrained goal programming with fuzzy rather than crisp decisions, which will seek a fuzzy set from the given reference collection as an optimal solution. The techni que of fuzzy simulation is also presented to check fuzzy chance constraints and to handle fuzzy objective and goal constraints. Finally, a fuzzy simul ation-based genetic algorithm for solving these models will be designed and illustrated by some numerical examples. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
