Özet

This paper introduces a new fuzzy mathematical model based on the fuzzy parametric programming (FPP) approach for the cellular manufacturing system (CMS) design. The aim of the proposed model is to handle two important problems of CMS design called cell formation (CF) and exceptional elements (EE) simultaneously in fuzzy environment. The model is capable to express vagueness of all the system parameters and gives the decision-maker (DM) alternative decision plans for different grades of precision. So, it is expected to provide a more realistic CMS design for real life problems. To illustrate the model proposed here, an example with fuzzy extension in data set is adopted from literature and computational results are presented.
