“…The proposed work can provide a solution to handle this critical situation. This work mainly focuses on fuzzy rulebased approach [49][50][51][52][53] that uses priority-based method [54,55] to manage and assign the hospital beds for the treatment of COVID-19 infected patients. The proposed approach is compared with the FCFS-based [56,57] approach to analyze the practical scenario during the assignment of hospital beds.…”

“…(Matawale et al 2016), (Sahu et al 2016) The four alternative suppliers operating domestically and overseas were names as; A1, A2, A3 and A4. The fuzzy number equivalents of the linguistic variables used by the three DMs to evaluate the dimensions and the criteria under them are given in Table 7 (Mavi et al 2017;Sumrit 2020). Firstly, the dimensions will be evaluated among themselves.…”
