Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to critically examine the use of fuzzy arithmetic in dealing with fuzzy systems. It is argued that the well-known overestimation and other questionable results of standard fuzzy arithmetic have one common cause: constraints regarding linguistic variables involved are not taken into account. A general formulation of constrained fuzzy arithmetic – a nonstandard fuzzy arithmetic that takes into account these constraints – is presented and its basic characteristics are examined. More specific characteristics of constrained fuzzy arithmetic are then investigated for some common types of constraints.
