Abstract
A new approach to multiobjective optimization is presented which is made possible due to our ability to obtain full global optimal solutions. A distinctive feature of this approach is that a vector cost function is nonscalarized. The method provides a means for the solution of vector optimization problems with nonreconcilable objectives.
