Abstract
This chapter shows a comparison of several t-norms and t-conorms used to compute the steady state of a fuzzy Markov chain. The effect of every of the selected norms over the mean and variance of a fuzzy Markov chain is evaluated using some simulations. Some recommendations and concluding remarks are given.
