Abstract

In this chapter, the non-simplex based approaches for solving several kinds of LPPs with fuzzy parameters are explored. In such approaches, the fuzzy constraints are first converted to crisp ones based on arithmetic operations on fuzzy numbers and then the standard methods are used for solving the crisp problems. Such approaches increase the number of functional constraints and thus directly affect the computational time of the simplex method.
