Book Description

The book gives readers a thorough understanding of fuzzy geometric programming, a field that was originated by the author. It is organized into two parts: theory and applications. The former aims at development of issues including fuzzy posynomial geometric programming and its dual form, a fuzzy reverse posynomial geometric programming and its dual form and a geometric programming model with fuzzy coefficients and fuzzy variables. The latter is intended to discuss problems in applications, including antinomy in fuzzy geometric programming, as well as practical examples from the power of industry and the administration of postal services. Audience: Researchers, doctoral and post-doctoral students working in fuzzy mathematics, applied mathematics, engineering, operations research, and economics.

Book Description

Fuzzy Multicriteria Decision-Making: Models, Algorithms and Applications addresses theoretical and practical gaps in considering uncertainty and multicriteria factors encountered in the design, planning, and control of complex systems. Including all prerequisite knowledge and augmenting some parts with a step-by-step explanation of more advanced concepts, the authors provide a systematic and comprehensive presentation of the concepts, design methodology, and detailed algorithms. These are supported by many numeric illustrations and a number of application scenarios to motivate the reader and make some abstract concepts more tangible. Fuzzy Multicriteria Decision-Making: Models, Algorithms and Applications will appeal to a wide audience of researchers and practitioners in disciplines where decision-making is paramount, including various branches of engineering, operations research, economics and management; it will also be of interest to graduate students and senior undergraduate students in courses such as decision making, management, risk management, operations research, numerical methods, and knowledge-based systems.

Book Description

Production engineering and management involve a series of planning and control activities in a production system. A production system can be as small as a shop with only one machine or as big as a global operation including many manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and retail locations in multiple continents. The product of a production system can also vary in complexity based on the material used, technology employed, etc. Every product, whether a pencil or an airplane, is produced in a system which depends on good management to be successful. Production management has been at the center of industrial engineering and management science disciplines since the industrial revolution. The tools and techniques of production management have been so successful that they have been adopted to various service industries, as well. The book is intended to be a valuable resource to undergraduate and graduate students interested in the applications of production management under fuzziness. The chapters represent all areas of production management and are organized to reflect the natural order of production management tasks. In all chapters, special attention is given to applicability and wherever possible, numerical examples are presented. While the reader is expected to have a fairly good understanding of the fuzzy logic, the book provides the necessary notation and preliminary knowledge needed in each chapter.

Book Description

Decision making is an omnipresent, most crucial activity of the human being, and also of virtually all artificial broadly perceived “intelligent” systems that try to mimic human behavior, reasoning and choice processes. It is quite obvious that such a relevance of decision making had triggered vast research effort on its very essence, and attempts to develop tools and techniques which would make it possible to somehow mimic human decision making related acts, even to automate decision making processes that had been so far reserved for the human beings. The roots of those attempts at a scientific analysis can be traced to the ancient times but – clearly – they have gained momentum in the recent 50 or 100 years following a general boom in science. Depending on the field of science, decision making can be viewed in different ways. The most general view can be that decision making boils down to some cognitive, mental process(es) that lead to the selection of an option or a course of action among several alternatives. Then, looking in a deeper way, from a psychological perspective this process proceeds in the context of a set of needs, preferences, rational choice of an individual, a group of individuals, or even an organization. From a cognitive perspective, the decision making process proceeds in the context of various interactions with the environment.

Book Description

The text envisages novel optimization methods that significantly impact real-life problems, starting from inventory control to economic decision-making. It discusses topics such as inventory control, queueing models, timetable scheduling, fuzzy optimization, and the Knapsack problem. The book’s content encompass the following key aspects: Presents a new model based on an unreliable server, wherein the convergence analysis is done using nature-inspired algorithms. Discusses the optimization techniques used in transportation problems, timetable problems, and optimal/dynamic pricing in inventory control. Highlights single and multi-objective optimization problems using pentagonal fuzzy numbers. Illustrates profit maximization inventory model for non-instantaneous deteriorating items with imprecise costs. Showcases nature-inspired algorithms such as particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, bat algorithm, and cuckoo search algorithm. The text covers multi-disciplinary real-time problems such as fuzzy optimization of transportation problems, inventory control with dynamic pricing, timetable problem with ant colony optimization, knapsack problem, queueing modeling using the nature-inspired algorithm, and multi-objective fuzzy linear programming. It showcases a comparative analysis for studying various combinations of system design parameters and default cost elements.
