Pranab Biswas, Surapati Pramanik . Multi-objective Assignment Problem with Fuzzy Costs for the Case of Military Affairs. International Journal of Computer Applications. 30, 10 ( September 2011), 7-12. DOI=10.5120/3678-5179
This paper presents multi-objective assignment problem with fuzzy costs, where all the objectives are to be simultaneously minimized. Here each fuzzy cost is assumed as trapezoidal fuzzy number. To form a single objective problem of a multi- objective fuzzy assignment problem, weights of the objectives have been taken according to their priorities. Yager’s ranking method has been used to transform a newly formed single objective fuzzy assignment problem into a crisp assignment problem in the linear programming problem form. Then, the single objective linear programming can be solved by any conventional method. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the potentiality of the proposed approach.
