Ti. Dimkou et Kp. Papalexandri, A PARAMETRIC OPTIMIZATION APPROACH FOR MULTIOBJECTIVE ENGINEERING PROBLEMS INVOLVING DISCRETE DECISIONS, Computers & chemical engineering, 22, 1998, pp. 951-954
A decomposition-based algorithm is presented in this work for the para
metric solution of mixed integer optimization problems and, in extensi
on, the identification of the noninferior solutions in multiobjective
optimization problems involving discrete decisions. The initial multio
bjective problem is formulated as a parametric mixed integer nonlinear
programming problem (pMINLP) and an upper- and lower-bounding method
is developed for the construction of the noninferior solution curve in
an iterative procedure. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights res
