Fuzzy geometric programming with several objective functions (Q914557)

The author considers the solution of a multiobjective geometric programming problem by using the theory of fuzzy sets. It is observed that the product operator reduces the degree-of-difficulty (DD) where DD of a geometric program is defined as (total number of terms- (total number of variables \(+1))\). The main purpose of the paper is to solve multiobjective geometric programming problems for which the weights of the objective functions have not been defined and to project the importance of the product operator in that it is capable of reducing the DD by a considerable amount.
