Two Weighted Fuzzy Goal Programming Methods to Solve Multiobjective Goal Programming Problem by Mousumi Gupta, Debasish Bhattacharjee

“…Here, the relative weights represent the relative importance of the objective functions. The proposed methods involve one additional goal constraint by introducing only underdeviation variables to the fuzzy operator λ (resp., 1-λ), which is more efficient than some well-known existing methods such as those proposed by Zimmermann, Hannan, Tiwari, and Mohamed. …”
