Abstract: Multi-level linear programming problem subject to addition-min fuzzy relation inequalities is introduced to characterize a kind of optimization models in BitTorrent-like Peer-to-Peer file sharing systems. Based on some theorems, which contribute to the resolution of the proposed problem, we develop a novel algorithm to find the unique optimal solution. A practical application example is presented to illustrate the feasibility and efficiency of the algorithm.
Keywords: Fuzzy relation inequalities, addition-min composition, multi-level linear programming, fuzzy relation equation, Peer-to-Peer file sharing system
