Management of surgical waiting lists through a Possibilistic Linear Multiobjective Programming problem

Real decision problems usually involve several objectives that have parameters which are often given by the decision maker in an imprecise way. It is possible to handle these kinds of problems through multiple criteria models in terms of possibility theory. Here we apply a Possibilistic Linear Multiobjective Programming method, developed by the authors, for solving a hospital management problem using a Fuzzy Compromise Programming approach.
