One promising approach that has been proposed for dealing with multicriteria (i.e., multiple objective) programming models has been fuzzy linear programming (FLP). In essence, the FLP approach involves the replacement of the multiple objectives with goals by means of assigning an aspiration level to each objective. Fuzzy membership functions are then introduced to represent the measure of the achievement of the actual solution for each goal-relative to its aspired level. It has been shown that, if the FLP problem is linear,
