The mathematical programming approach called `goal programming' or GP has been in existence for over three decades. GP has been used to optimize decision making from Christmas trees to allocating the resources of a whole nation's agricultural industry. This book reviews the body of knowledge on...

Decision makers in many areas, from industry to engineering and the social sector, face an increasing need to consider multiple, conflicting objectives in their decision processes. In many cases these real world decision problems can be formulated as multicriteria mathematical optimization...

This book presents adaptive solution methods for multiobjective optimization problems based on parameter dependent scalarization approaches. Readers will benefit from the new adaptive methods and ideas for solving multiobjective optimization.
