Several programming models are introduced with the consideration of available unascertained information. In this case, the so-called unascertained information is some numerical values whose ranges are known but their exact values are not. These models resolve several vital weaknesses of the traditional programming methods to a certain degree. Our study includes considerations of linear and non-linear programming models with grey parameters, grey 0–1 programming, and satisfactory and quasi-optimal solutions of grey linear programmings. Finally, some practical applications are given in order to test the applicability of our theory.
