Abstract :
In this paper, a new approach for the critical path analyzing a project network with random fuzzy activity
times has been proposed. The activity times of a project are assumed to be random fuzzy. Linear programming
formulation has been applied to determine the critical path. The critical path method (CPM)
problem has been solved using the expected duration optimization model and the mean-variance model
along with Liu’s definition for random fuzzy variables. Furthermore, a numerical example problem is
solved to illustrate the proposed method.
