A simple, eclectic approach for solving discrete alternative multiple criteria decision problems is presented. It is based on the concept of the level of aspiration, and draws on ideas of various researchers. It assumes that the user has a set of alternatives with each alternative having a score...

We develop an interactive method for multiple objective linear programming based on aspiration levels of a decision maker. The method assumes an unknown pseudoconcave preference structure of a decision maker throughout the decision process, and the decision maker's ability to select a preferred...
