%0 Journal Article %T Fuzzy approach with linear and some non-linear membership functions for solving multi-objective assignment problems %A Kagade K. L. %A Bajaj V. H. %J Advances in Computational Research %D 2009 %I Bioinfo Publications %X Assignment Problem (A.P.) originates from the classical problems where the objective is tofind the optimum assignment of a number of jobs (tasks) to an equal number of machines (or workers)at a minimum cost or minimum time. The multi-objective assignment problem refers to a special class ofvector minimum linear programming problems. In this paper, we use a special type of linear and nonlinearmembership functions to solve the multi-objective assignment problem. It gives an optimalcompromise solution. The result obtained by using a linear membership function has been comparedwith the solution obtained by using non-linear membership functions. Numerical example has beenprovided to illustrate the solution procedure. %K Assignment Problem %K Multi-criteria decision making %K Linear membership function %K Non-linear membership function %U http://www.bioinfo.in/uploadfiles/12605484691_2_3_ACR.pdf
