Possibilistic optimization in planning decision of construction industry

This paper proposes a new method to obtain optimal solution using satisfactory approach in uncertain environment. The optimal solution is obtained by using possibilistic linear programming approach and MATLAB<sup>®</sup> computation. The possibilistic linear programming approach uses mo...
