Abstract EN
This research paper proposes a modified ranking approach to determine the critical path in fuzzy project network, where the duration of each activity time is represented by an octagonal fuzzy number.
In this method, a modified subtraction formula is carried out on fuzzy numbers.
This modified method works well on fuzzy backward pass calculations as there will be no negative time.
The analysis is expected to show that the fuzzy number which is used in this paper is more effective in determining the critical path in a fuzzy project network and possibility of meeting the project time.
A numerical example is given and compared with trapezoidal, triangular fuzzy numbers through proposed ranking method.
