TLDR
This paper provides a survey of the application of fuzzy set theory in production management research, and identifies selected bibliographies on fuzzy sets and applications.Abstract:
Fuzzy set theory has been used to model systems that are hard to define precisely. As a methodology, fuzzy set theory incorporates imprecision and subjectivity into the model formulation and solution process. Fuzzy set theory represents an attractive tool to aid research in production management when the dynamics of the production environment limit the specification of model objectives, constraints and the precise measurement of model parameters. This paper provides a survey of the application of fuzzy set theory in production management research. The literature review that we compiled consists of 73 journal articles and nine books. A classification scheme for fuzzy applications in production management research is defined. We also identify selected bibliographies on fuzzy sets and applications.read more

A Hybrid Cooperative Coevolution Algorithm for Fuzzy Flexible Job Shop Scheduling
TL;DR: This paper proposes an effective hybrid cooperative coevolution algorithm (hCEA) for the minimization of fuzzy makespan, which is named fuzzy flexible job shop scheduling because it performs better than the existing methods from the literature.

Fuzzy hierarchical production planning (with a case study)
TL;DR: Inspired by a real industrial case, a fuzzy HPP (FHPP) model is proposed which is composed of two decision making levels and it is compared with the previously developed crisp model.

Capacity and material requirement planning modelling by comparing deterministic and fuzzy models
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the capacity and material requirement planning problem with uncertainty in a multi-product, multi-level and multi-period manufacturing environment is proposed, which takes into account the uncertainty that exists in both the market demand and capacity data, and the uncertain costs for backlog.
