Possibilistic programming decision making in modality perspective

The decision making faces a number of inherent uncertainties. The uncertainty of parameters of a model comes from vagueness and ambiguity included in the model structure and information. In this paper we present the decision model from the perspective of possibilistic programming to treat properly uncertainties in the decision making. The proposed concept plays a pivotal role in building fuzzy linear programming model, which is exposed with various types of uncertainties. The treatment of vagueness and ambiguity is given and a modality approach is used to solve the fuzzy linear program. An illustrative example explains the proposed model.
