Abstract :
Basic principles of constrained fuzzy arithmetic are introduced as generalizations of the usual (unconstrained) fuzzy arithmetic. It is shown that these principles are applicable to both crisp and fuzzy constraints. The significance of constrained fuzzy arithmetic is illustrated by a few simple examples
