Abstract: Abstract The derivation of mathematical models that can efficiently describe real-world problems is most of the time an overwhelming or even impossible task due to the complexity and the inherent ambiguity of characteristics that these problems may possess. As (1973), the founder of the theory of fuzzy sets, puts it, as the complexity of a system increases, our ability to make precise and yet significant statements about its behavior diminishes until a threshold is reached beyond which precision and significance (or relevance) become almost mutually exclusive characteristics.
