In this paper, we propose a new exact algorithm, using an augmented weighted Tchebychev norm, for optimizing a linear function on the efficient set of a multiple objective integer linear programming problem. This norm is optimized progressively by improving the value of the linear criteria and going through some efficient solutions. The method produced not only the best efficient solution of the linear objective function but also a subset of nondominated solutions that can help decision makers to select the best decision among a large set of Pareto solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
