In this pper the trpezoidl intuitionistic fuzzy numer is defuzzified using grded men integrtion representtion. Now the intuitionistic fuzzy numer is converted to crisp numer. Then pplying the proposed lgorithm we find the criticl pth. The pth in intuitionistic fuzzy project network re 5, 5nd 5.The criticl pth for intuitionistic fuzzy network for oth memership nd non-memership function re 5. Hence the procedure developed in this pper form new methods to get criticl pth, in intuitionistic fuzzy environment.
Criticl pth prolem 56 5. Conclusion new nlyticl method for finding criticl pth in n intuitionistic fuzzy project network hs een proposed. We hve used new defuzzifiction formul for trpezoidl fuzzy numer nd pplied to the flot time for ech ctivity in the intuitionistic fuzzy project network to find the criticl pth. In generl intuitionistic fuzzy models re more effective in determining criticl pths in rel project networks. This pper, use the grded men integrtion representtion the procedure to find the optiml pth in n intuitionistic fuzzy weighted grph hving help decision mkers to decide on the est possile criticl pth in intuitionistic fuzzy environments.
