While in the past decades research on multi-objective evolutionaryalgorithms (MOEA) has aimed at finding the wholeset of Pareto optimal solutions, current approaches focus ononly those parts of the Pareto front which satisfy the preferencesof the decision maker (DM). Therefore, they integratethe...

Until recently, multidimensional knapsack problems (MDKP)and winner determination problems (WDP) have been studiedindependently of each other, although WDPs can bemodelled as MDKPs. State-of-the-art optimization methodsfor WDPs are exact algorithms whereas MDKPs aremainly solved using heuristics...
