Schur-concave triangular norms: Characterization and application in pFCSP

Abstract

The concept of priority is often used in real time systems. Schur-concave t-norms are used to capture this concept within prioritized fuzzy constraint satisfaction problems (pFCSPs). We are dealing with a very strict notion of priority which favors the constraint with the larger priority regardless of its value.Also, some results on the characterization of Schur-concave t-norms are given. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.
