A fuzzy multiple objective linear programming approach to forest planning under uncertainty

Abstract Describes the use of Fuzzy Multiple Objective Linear Programming (FMOLP) in forest planning where imprecise objective function coefficients are present. An extended formulation is also described for planning situations where uncertainties occur in the constraint set. A sample problem is presented to illustrate the approach.
