Abstract

Abstract: In this paper we develop a new algorithm for the initial fuzzy basic feasible solution to a solid transportation problem with imprecise parameters. All the decision variables are assumed to be triangular fuzzy numbers. Using parametric form of triangular fuzzy numbers such as left fuzziness index, right fuzziness index, modal value and by using proposed algorithm we obtained the initial basic fuzzy feasible solution to the problem without changing to its crisp equivalent form. We further discuss the optimality by applying the modified distribution method. A numerical example is solved to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
