Abstract :
The use of linguistic information has been applied successfully to many areas. In the literature, we can find three different linguistic computational models for representing linguistic information and defining linguistic aggregation operators. In this paper, we review the use of the linguistic information in different areas of operations research, such as decision-making, scheduling, management, etc. Finally, we make a comparative analysis of the results obtained by combining information using the different linguistic computational models in operations research problems
