Abstract

Both discrete and continuous Z-numbers are pairs of discrete and continuous fuzzy numbers.  Even though the later are ordered, this do not simply imply the discrete and continuous Z-numbers are ordered as well. This paper proposed the idea of ordered discrete and continuous Z-numbers, which are necessary properties for constructing temporal Z-numbers.  Linear ordering relation, , is applied between set of discrete or continuous Z-numbers and any arbitrary ordered subset of   to obtain the properties.
