Multi-Objective Linear Programming Revisited: Exact and Approximate Approaches
… decision making problems involve more than one objective function and can be formulated as multiple objective linear programming (MOLP) problems. Some exact methods have proven to be effective on small and medium scale MOLP instances. The thesis considers prominent exact methods, implements and …

Green Design of a Cellulosic Bio-butanol Supply Chain Network with Life Cycle Assessment
… the life cycle analysis was integrated into a multi-objective linear programming model. With the objectives of maximizing the economic profits and minimizing the greenhouse gas emissions, the proposed model can optimize the location and size of a bio-butanol production plant. The mathematical …

DUALITY IN NONLINEAR VECTOR OPTIMIZATION
… theory for a convex vector optimization nonlinear programming problem, In mathematical programming, duality means in association to, say a minimization problem, we maximize a related problem, called its dual. Occasionally, the dual problem may turn out to be an easier problem to solve and …

A Spatial Decision Support System for the Development of Multi-Source Renewable Energy Systems
… section of the model framework which utilizes a multi-objective linear programming (MOLP) model to determine the optimal mix of new renewable energy sources and existing fossil fuel facilities. In addition to the potential wind and solar resources discovered in the GIS, the MOLP model considers …

Optimizing the management of soil erosion using GIS
… yield and maximize watershed farm income by a multi-objective linear programming model. These models were applied to Syahrood, one of the sub-basins of Damavand watershed in Iran, where soil erosion by water is one of the major land-related problems. Runoff erosivity, soil erodibility, slope …

Development and application of a multi-criteria decision-support framework for planning rural energy supply interventions in low-income households in South Africa
… several alternatives, criteria, and conflicting objectives must be considered. As a result, solutions to these types of problems cannot be modelled solely using single-criteria techniques. It has been observed that most techniques used to shape energy policy and planning either produce …
