According to the current approach, the FFLP problem with equality constraints first is converted into a multi–objective linear programming (MOLP) problem with crisp constraints and then a lexicographic ordering method is used for solving the resulting MOLP problem. However, this approach cannot be used for finding the fuzzy optimal solution of FFLP problems with inequality constraints. The aim of this study is to point out and correct some errors in the definitions, notations operations and fuzzy ordering of the current approach for solving FFLP problems with fuzzy inequality constraints. Hence, a modified approach to obtain the fuzzy optimal solution of the FFLP problems with inequality constraints is proposed. Finally, several numerical examples are presented to illustrate the proposed approach. Manuscript profile -

In fact, due to inaccurate information, it is difficult to know exactly values of coefficients that used to construct a bilevel model. The interval set theory is suitable for describing and solving uncertainty and inaccuracy in these decision-making issues. For this reason, interval bilevel linear programming problem, in which the coefficients in both objective functions and constraints are interval, is an attractive subject. In this paper, we consider a type of interval bilevel linear programming problem full , in which all the coefficients in both objective functions and constraints are interval. The purpose of this paper is to present a new method for solving fully interval bilevel linear programming problem with equality constraints.

In other words, this paper studied the following question: How much would be the increase in the inputs of the DMU if the decision maker increases certain outputs to a particular unit in which the DMU maintains its current efficiency level? In this study, unlike other proposed methods, the above question was addressed using just the single-objective linear programming (LP) problems. The problem of estimation of inputs was investigated based on the non-radial models. Necessary and sufficient conditions are proposed for estimation of inputs using just the single-objective LP problems. In addition, the level of deficiency (if any exists) in each of the output components is specified. An example with real data is presented to illustrate our proposed method. Manuscript profile -

The mentioned method determines the optimal solution by forming and solving a Non-Linear Programming Model (NLPM). In respect to the difficulties of solving the relevant NLPM, some attempts have been made to provide Linear Programming Models (LPM) or Equivalent Mixed Linear Programming Models. But there are some deficiencies in each of the proposed models. In this paper, by removing the mentioned deficiencies, an algorithm was proposed to estimate the solution of BWM NLPM with an acceptable error by forming and solving Mixed Integer Linear Programming Models (MILPMs). In the suggested algorithm, first, the equivalent model of NLPM (ENLPM) was formed. Then by Piecewise Linear Approximation (PLA) using the SOS2 method, the non-linear sentences of ENLPM were approximated and the first MILP model was formed and solved. If the error of solution is not acceptable, improving the PLA of the ENLPM nonlinear sentences, the forming of new MILPMs, and its solving continues until a solution with acceptable error obtained. To investigate the reliability of the algorithm, a new method for generating samples was proposed. Then using this method, 128 samples with three and five attributes were generated. The results of implementing the proposed algorithm to solve generated samples showed the performance and efficiency of the proposed algorithm. In this regard by forming and solving a maximum of three MILPMs of the samples, an estimation of the solution with 1% error was obtained. Manuscript profile -

On the other hand, the present modern organization have turned out to be so widespread, which one doesn’t capable to oversee them. In this manner, this issue of multi attribute group decision making is considered as an organizational problem. In multi attribute group decision making problems, according to the different attributes in decision matrix, knowing the coefficient of importance or weight of each attribute in decision making is essential. As the weight of each attribute express its relative importance to the others and the conscious and correct selection of weights is a great help in achieving the desired goal. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a linear programming model to determine the weight of each attribute in multi attribute group decision making problems with intuitionistic fuzzy data. As good as, decision makers are prevented from making eventual mistakes in determining the weight of attributes. Finally, using the obtained weights, a new method for ranking the alternatives based on ELECTRE III method, is presented. A numerical applied example is provided to illustrate the details of the proposed method. Manuscript profile -

Although multi-parametric programming with uncertainty in the objective function coefficients and right-hand side of constraints has been extensively discussed and various methods have been proposed for this, uncertainty in the coefficients matrix (i.e. left-hand side uncertainty) have been less considered. In this work, a new method for solving multi-parametric mixed-integer linear problems (mp-MILP) with uncertainty in constraints is presented. This procedure consists of two steps, which in the first step, the bounds of the bilinear terms are improved by using tightening piecewise McCormick relaxations and secondly, based on these improved bounds and estimating bilinear terms, an approximate model of mp-MILP is obtained. The performance of the presented method is investigated by two examples. To do this, the approximation of the problem has been done in different partitioning factors and computational requirements to solve them have been compared. Manuscript profile -

In the literature of fuzzy linear programming several models are offered and therefore some various methods have been suggested to solve these problems. One of the most important of these problems that recently has been considered; are Fully Fuzzy Linear Programming (FFLP), which all coefficients and variables of the problem are the same kind of fuzzy numbers. One of most common of them is the model in which all fuzzy parameters are discussed by triangle numbers. In this paper, we first define a fully fuzzy linear programming with trapezoidal numbers and then suggest a new method based on reducing the original problem to the problem with triangle number. Specially, a conversion function for converting two trapezoidal and triangular numbers to each other is offered. Finally, the mentioned method is illustrated by a numerical example.

As a mathematical tool, data envelopment analysis (DEA) is provided to economics, so that one can investigate associated costs, prices and revenues of economic units. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a linear programming technique used for measuring the relative efficiency of decision making units based on input and output data. One of the applications of this technique is calculation of revenue efficiency. Methods of revenue efficiency calculation in DEA are generally presented for obtaining maximum revenue from output selling, these methods are not sufficiently efficient for evaluation of all system including network systems due to ignoring the internal structure of units and their middle products. Therefore, in this article, in addition to introduction of inverse linear programming in DEA and its application in calculating revenue efficiency, a new method is presented which considers the network structure of units, the ability to determine the optimal price and appropriate costs for efficiency of the unit. The proposed numerical examples demonstrated the superiority of the proposed methods over the traditional data envelopment analyses. Manuscript profile -

This study by considering the financial ratios as evaluating indicators tries to determine appropriate model for investment decisions in stocks. In this study, the combination of respectively models, linear regression, multi attribute decision making and linear programming were used to forecast the future of financial ratio trends, ranking companies and asset allocation. In the first step of study, after selecting 17 financial ratios and indicators as variables of the hybrid model, their values from the first quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2015 was calculated for companies included in the sample. Then by using the moving average with exogenous inputs and Auto Regressive Moving Average with exogenous input, these variables were predicted for the studied period (second quarter 2015). In the next step, we used Shannon entropy to determine the weight of indexes and the grey relational analysis for ranking companies. Finally, by using a linear programming model, a model was developed to select the optimal portfolio. According to this model, a portfolio of stocks formed and by using the Sharp ratio, its performance was compared with the overall index and the top 50 index. The results showed that the hybrid model has had a better performance than the overall index and the top 50 index, in the period of the study. Manuscript profile -

The optimal amounts of cropping pattern were determined in Qazvin province by a non-linear programming model. Then, the effects of deficit irrigation was investigated on cropping pattern, water used and farmer’s gross marginal simultaneously with reduced available water under scenarios 10, 20, 30 and 40 percent. To estimating of the agricultural production functions was used Ordinary Least Squares method and Eviews software. The non-linear programming model was solved in GAMS software. The results of estimated production functions showed that deficit irrigation 5 percent creates a slight decrease in products yield. But, deficit irrigation 10 percent has the negative effect on yield of most products. The results of non-linear programming model showed although use of deficit irrigation 5 percent simultaneously with reduced available water policy creates the slight decrease in farmer’s gross marginal but this technique helps to maintain and sustainability of surface and underground water resources of Qazvin plain strongly.

Method: This technique is considered as a strategy to increase profitability. However, in addition to profitability goal, many studies have focused to optimize water and fertilizers consumption as environmental objectives. Current study investigates the rule of deficit irrigation in a model that compromises the economic and environmental objectives. Fasa city in Fars province were selected as the study area since placed in warm climate field and affected by water stress. A Fuzzy nonlinear programming model were used to compromise the goals of maximum gross margin and minimum chemical fertilizer and water consumption for a representative farm in study area. This model was subjected to yield response functions to water and other constraints. Findings: The results showed that the representative farm is inefficient to select cropping pattern in comparison to compromised goals model. This comparison also revealed there is a the possibility for increasing income of representative farm by applying full irrigation to gain potential yield and reducing cultivation area for considering the available water restrictions. Discussion and Conclusion: Although, increasing of gross margin is conflicted by decreasing water consumption and partly by reducing fertilizer use, but generalizing the results of representative farm to the whole city showed that implementation of this model will add the revenues about 94 billion Rials in total area. While the positive environmental outcomes such as reducing about 4.6 million cubic meters of water and 7,246 tons of chemical fertilizer would be the other results of implementing this model.

Determining limitations and mitigation procedures for the negative effects compose the main core of the EIA procedure, in case the suggested development has been allowed. In this study, impact assessment has been applied for five suggested compost and landfill sites in Golestan Province of Iran. Method: In this study, considering the associated costs, linear programming has been applied to rank the proposed landfill and compost plant sites. For this purpose, GIS data has been used and the optimum site selection process has been implemented. The site has been determined so as to minimize the likely impacts. Findings: The results show that by using linear programming, site 1 on the eastern part with a slight difference to others, and site 5 in the west,ern part with the least goal function value are the best. The most effective parameters for the sites 1 to 4 is underground water pollution, and for site 5 is loss of valuable land. However, at the site 5, the impact on the neighboring no-hunting area is more important than underground water pollution, considering costs and the required time for mitigation efforts. Conclusion: Using the minimum and maximum levels of mitigation levels shows that increase of mitigation can reduce pollution, and vice versa. Sensitivity analysis confirms the accuracy of this method. Manuscript profile -

In this way, the vehicle goes to the location of ‎several suppliers to pick up orders and then is sent to one or more destinations for delivery. In this ‎logistics system, cargoes are aggregated within the vehicle and through various nodes in the logistics ‎network. This paper introduces a mixed integer linear programming model for the Milkran logistics ‎problem that takes into account considerations such as three-dimensional loading of the order ‎pallets into vehicles, 50% higher cost for returning empty pallets, order timewindows, and ‎heterogeneous fleets. Given the nature of the problem, an algorithm based on grouping evolutionary ‎strategy is introduced that uses heuristic methods to ensure vehicles’ loading and routing feasibility. ‎The effectiveness of the introduced mathematical model and meta-heuristic algorithm is measured ‎using data collected from Saipa Automotive Group. The computational results show that Milkran ‎Logistics has the ability to reduce costs by 24.5% (on average), compared to the direct shipping ‎strategy pursued by Saipa.‎ Manuscript profile -

Considering the internal logistics aspects, due to the limitations and resources available in order to reduce costs by increasing the level of capability, the supply systems of materials and components will be achieved along the line. Considering the effect of the completion time of pick operations on the start time of distribution operations and the cost of order preparation tardiness, the present study aimed to investigate a new issue related to the integrated process of order preparation in the warehouse and delivery on time to minimize cost according to the data of a car companys. In this regard, an integer nonlinear programming model is proposed to minimize the costs caused by tardiness. In order to validate the model, the small problem is solved in exact way. To solve the model, since the problem is NP-Hard, the method of whale optimization algorithm was used and to improve the optimal routing solutions, the problem was investigated by designing an adaptive whale algorithm considering the cost and time of visiting workstations as a fitting function. Also, to assess the proposed adaptive whale algorithm, the results were compared with two meta-heuristic algorithms of particle swarm optimization and gray wolf. The results show that the proposed adaptive wall algorithm performs better than other methods, which improves and reduces costs. Manuscript profile -

Simultaneously, the potential for profit arising from product recycling has further emphasized the importance of these systems. This research focuses on developing a four-stage closed-loop network model for the supply chain, taking into account the uncertainty of product recycling rates. The primary objective of this study is to provide an integer linear programming model aimed at minimizing supply chain costs and customer service time under uncertain conditions. The supply chain model is designed by integrating queuing theory and product recycling system optimization. A critical aspect of this research involves modeling the uncertainty in the return rate of consumer products in the closed-loop supply chain, with the aim of developing a robust approach to address this issue. Additionally, the performance of the proposed model in the paper industry is evaluated, and a sensitivity analysis is conducted with respect to the decision variables using two metaheuristic algorithms: the Multiple Objective Harmony Search and the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm.

With the advancement in science and dealing with various problems, it tends to have problems in mass production in a short time. Heuristic and meta-heuristic techniques are the latest achievements of nonlinear programming for solving the similar problem. One area that requires programming applications in mass production is NP-scheduling problems. This paper aims at modeling and comparing the two methods of Linear Programming and Ant Colony System Algorithm in flexible flow shop scheduling problem according to the number of jobs and machines. This study is based on comparing the index of time processing, the number of constraints, optimality, and the memory size of the random numbers. Using Quasi-experimental research method, software testing tools are C-sharp and Lingo for the ant colony algorithm and linear programming respectively. The results show that linear programming model has higher performance when machines and jobs are in low numbers; however, with the rise of the machines and jobs, Ant Colony System algorithm has proven high efficiency.

In MoreSVM is one of the popular classification algorithms based on statistics learning, which is presented for two-class problems. In real environments, the problem is usually multi-class. Thus, multi-class separation methods are very important compared to binary classes. In this work, to decrease the complexity of the model and the resulting loss of accuracy, fuzzy game theory is derived, which will be able to map the non-linear to a linear problem. Fuzzy game theory is obtained from the probability of data in each class by using two players (in our problem, each player is equivalent to a class label). Here, the decision matrix is yielded by the fuzzy logic, and then the equations are solved by the linear programming. Obtained results from the computer simulation validate the SVM model by fuzzy game theory. Manuscript profile -

This model is formulated under four constraints consisting of storage spaces, budgetary, allowable shortage quantities and periodic order quantities. The last two constraints are considered as interval. In the presented model, shortage is allowable and lead-time is zero. The parameters such as demands, costs (including: setting, maintenance, shortage) and constraint resources are fuzzy. The type of fuzzy numbers in demand & cost is triangular and the numbers of constraint resources are positive trapezoid. In solution methodology, first we converted the cost objective and manpower objective functions to six objective functions and then reduced fuzzy constraints to crisp constraints via defuzzification. Then we solved the resulted crisp multi objective model using Fuzzy Non Linear Programming (FNLP). Finally we presented a numerical example to solve and describe the model applying Lingo software package. Manuscript profile -

The problem of the security-constrained unit commitment as an upper-level problem to reduce operating costs, startup/shutdown costs, and no-load along with load shedding as a mixed integer linear programming model and the problem of optimal operation in independent distribution networks by considering renewable and non-renewable resources along with charging stations for electric vehicles as a lower-level problem to reduce the costs of purchasing power from the upstream network and reduce the costs of power outages. The resources and charging power of electric vehicle charging stations are considered a linear model. To solve the bi-level problem, the proposed lower-level model is modeled as Karush-Kahn-Tucker optimality conditions. Several different networks have been considered for validating the model and the proposed method, and the results obtained from the simulation prove the efficiency of the model and the proposed method in considering the coordinated operation of intelligent transmission and distribution networks. To show the superiority of the proposed method over other algorithms for solving multilevel models, the proposed method has been compared with decomposition algorithms, and the results show the superiority of the proposed method in terms of execution time and faster convergence.

The delay in increasing storage production capacity is one of the applications for energy storage supplies in which utilization from energy storage supplies along with improvement in the power status at peak hours of consumption may postpone the demand for installation of a new power plant module. In this essay, the optimal capacity of energy storage is determined in order to reduce exploitation costs by second-order non linear programming. This method expresses this problem with a target quadratic function based on the produced power of units and capacity of energy storage supply. The requirements have been modeled as linear equality and inequality equations. The related constraints for produced power and incremental and decremental power ratio in generators have been considered as well. Manuscript profile -

Climatic MoreTo achieve goals such as economic growth, food security and sustainability of scarce resources, including water resources depends more than ever to correct use of these resources. Climatic characteristics of our country, wasting too much water in various uses, especially its low efficiency in the agricultural sector, unwillingness of private sector in investment in water resources development and inappropriate patterns of the crop pattern at one hand, and Scarcity of water resources on the other hand has led the optimal allocation of water to be of interest and importance. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to estimate the real value (shadow price) of water and determine the optimal cropping pattern with regard to products that are more efficient in using of water. For this purpose Fuzzy linear programming model used and the results are compared with exact linear programming model. Results for lands under coverage of Alavian dam show that the real price of water by using both models is identical and equal to 198 Rials per cubic meter, but profits per unit of water consumed in the fuzzy model is much more definite pattern.

To do so, Linear Programming, to 2004-2005 data related to classic index (DRC) in Kermanshah province was applied. Results showed that corn has comparative advantages in all regions of Kermanshah province while in optimal cultivation pattern of 37.5 percentages of regions in existence of rotation and 50 percentages of regions in lack of rotation, corn acreage has been increased. In addition, comparing optimal cultivation pattern resulted from linear programming models with crops ranking based on comparative advantage indices indicated that, resources availability and limitations, tradable and non-tradable inputs costs and yield will lead to shift in production’s comparative advantage from one crop to another. Factors such as supporting policies and rotation might also have effects on comparative advantages and optimal cultivating pattern. Manuscript profile -

For this purpose, using non-parametric technique that is based on mathematical programming methods, and in particular Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), provinces of the country have been classified and ranked. In this research, according to the input and output of cooperative agencies, taking in 30 provinces in 2009, their efficiency has been evaluated with the assumption of constant and variable return to scale. The results show that considering the first assumption, provinces of Zanjan, North Khorasan, kohkiloyeh and Boyerahmad, Sistan and Baluchestan and Lorestan, have the highest efficiency among the country's provinces. Also, having the second assumption into the account, the provinces of Fars, Khorasan Razavi, Tehran and Qom, Isfahan would be efficient. Finally, regarding the patterns being kohkilouyeh and Boyerahmad and based on the findings of this study can be said that in order to increase efficiency of the non-efficient provinces, kohkilouyeh and Boyerahmad should be considered as the pattern.

The initial strategy is to zero the risk of non-systematic risk by diversification in the optimal portfolio. In this research, WCVaR applied model and linear programming method for stock market risk measurement and selection of a weight optimized portfolio were used. WCVaR is one of the newest risk measurements and covers the defects of the VaR and CVaR models. This research 11-year period information (1387 -1397) was used from actual data of 10 different companies accepted in Tehran Stock Exchange. This research uses data from ten companies accepted in TESM during the period of 1397-1387. The results of model estimation using the linear programming method in Matlab software showed that changing the benchmark optimization would lead to a change in the weight of the basket stock and change the strategy of diversification in the optimal portfolio. The results of estimating the model using the linear programming method showed that changing the optimization criterion will lead to a change in the stock weight of the portfolio and a change in the diversification strategy in the optimal stock portfolio. Among the 44 baskets with different weights, the most optimal Manuscript profile -

In this research, the sample size is equal to the statistical population and including all branches of Agricultural Bank of Kerman province. Also the model is estimated by using of 3 programming methods: linear, goal and fuzzy. Some soft wares like Excel and Win QSB were used for analyzing this data. Due to the results, linear and goal programming are more allocation and the proceeds of the grant increased by using linear and goal programming than fuzzy programming and the bank current allocation. The results suggest that using linear and goal programming can help the managers for allocating resources so that higher yields will be achieved. Manuscript profile -

127 - A TOPSIS-Based Improved Weighting Approach With Evolutionary Computation

Authors usually suppose that weights are given in advance, and focus on the solution methods for the specific problem at hand. However, weights directly settle the class of optimal solutions, and are of utmost importance in any practical scheduling problem. In this study, we propose a new weighting approach for single machine scheduling problems. First, factor weights to be used in customer evaluation are found by solving a nonlinear optimization problem using the covariance matrix adaptation evolutionary strategy (CMAES) under fuzzy environment that takes a pairwise comparison matrix as input. Next, customers are sorted using the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) by means of which job weights are obtained. Finally, taking these weights as an input, a total weighted tardiness minimization problem is solved by using mixed-integer linear programming to find the best job sequence. This combined methodology may help companies make robust schedules not based purely on subjective judgment, find the best compromise between customer satisfaction and business needs, and thereby ensure profitability in the long run.
