Abstract

In this paper, an efficient method is introduced to solve fully fuzzy linear programming problems. The proposed method is derived from the multi-objective linear programming problem and lexicographic ordering method. Theoretical analysis for the proposed method has been provided. Moreover, some numerical experiments are given to show the preference of the proposed methods and are compared with some available methods.
