Abstract

The previous chapter presented an initial discussion of computational issues related to solving large scale multiobjective linear programming problems. The discussion was restricted to problems which can be structured as multiobjective network flow problems. This chapter will broaden the discussion to linear programming problems with general structure. The discussion will describe a study of the computational requirements for obtaining a representation of the ideal solution for large scale multiobjective linear programs.
