Abstract

Assignment problem has various applications in the real world because of their wide applicability in industry, commerce, management science, etc. Traditional classical assignment problems cannot be successfully used for real life problem; hence the use of fuzzy assignment problem is more appropriate. Fuzzy sets were introduced by Lofti A. Zadeh in 1965 as an extension of representing impreciseness or vagueness in day to day life. In this paper, Triangular Fuzzy Assignment Problem has been defuzzified into crisp values using Centroid Ranking method and Hungarian method has been applied to find an optimal solution.The proposed method is illustrated by numerical examples.
