Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to study linear programming problem with fuzzy coefficients as one of the convenient model of fuzzy linear programs. In this way, we first introduce a general form of Fuzzy Number Linear programming (FNLP) problems and then give the fundamental concepts which are useful in throughout of the chapter.
