Abstract
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.
