	%X This paper investigates the optimization problem of
multi-product aggregate production planning (APP) with fuzzy data.
From a comprehensive viewpoint of conserving the fuzziness of input
information, this paper proposes a method that can completely
describe the membership function of the performance measure. The
idea is based on the well-known Zadeh-s extension principle which
plays an important role in fuzzy theory. In the proposed solution
procedure, a pair of mathematical programs parameterized by
possibility level a is formulated to calculate the bounds of the
optimal performance measure at a . Then the membership function of
the optimal performance measure is constructed by enumerating
different values of a . Solutions obtained from the proposed method
contain more information, and can offer more chance to achieve the
feasible disaggregate plan. This is helpful to the decision-maker in
practical applications.
