Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to construct the membership functions of performance measures in bulk arrival queuing systems with arrival rate and service rate being fuzzy numbers. Thus, this paper develops the parametric programming approach to derive the membership functions of the steady-state performance measures in bulk arrival queuing systems with varying batch size. On the basis of a cut representation and extension principle, a parametric programming is formulated to describe the family of crisp bulk arrival queues. The performance measures are expressed by membership functions rather than crisp values, which completely conserve the fuzziness of input information when some data of bulk arrival queuing systems are ambiguous.
