In this paper, the effects of uncertainty on multiple-objective linear programming models are studied using the concepts of fuzzy set theory. The proposed interactive decision support system is based on the interactive exploration of the weight space. The comparative analysis of indifference regions on the various weight spaces (which vary according to intervals of values of the satisfaction degree of objective functions and constraints) enables to study the stability and evolution of the basis that correspond to the calculated efficient solutions with changes of some model parameters.

In this paper we investigate the asymptotic stability of dynamic, multiple-objectivelinear programs. In particular, we show that a generalization of the optimal partition stabilizes for a large class of data functions. This result is based on a new theorem about asymptotic sign-solvable systems. The stability properties of the generalized optimal partition are used to address a dynamic version of the nonsubstitution theorem.

We introduce in this paper a new starting mechanism for multiple-objective linear programming (MOLP) algorithms. This makes it possible to start an algorithm from any solution in object:ive space. The original problem is first augmented in such a way that a given starting solution is feasible. The augmentation is explicitly or implicitly controlled by one parameter during the search process, which verifies the feasibility (efficiency) of the final solution. This starting mechanism can be applied either to traditional algorithms, which search the exterior of the constraint polytope, or to algorithms moving through the interior of the constraints. We provide recommendations on the suitability of an algorithm for the various locations of a starting point in objective space. Numerical considerations illustrate these ideas.

Bilevel-programming techniques are developed to handle decentralized problems with two-level decision makers, which are leaders and followers, who may have more than one objective to achieve. This paper proposes a lambda-cut and goal-programming- based algorithm to solve fuzzy-linearmultiple-objective bilevel (FLMOB) decision problems. First, based on the definition of a distance measure between two fuzzy vectors using.-cut, a fuzzy-linear bilevel goal (FLBG) model is formatted, and related theorems are proved. Then, using a.-cut for fuzzy coefficients and a goal-programming strategy for multipleobjectives, a.-cut and goal-programming-based algorithm to solve FLMOB decision problems is presented. A case study for a newsboy problem is adopted to illustrate the application and executing procedure of this algorithm. Finally, experiments are carried out to discuss and analyze the performance of this algorithm.

This paper deals with the inverse Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) under inter-temporal dependence assumption. Both problems, input-estimation and output-estimation, are investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for input/output estimation are established utilizing Pareto and weak Pareto solutions of linearmultiple-objectiveprogramming problems. Furthermore, in this paper we introduce a new optimality notion for multiple-objectiveprogramming problems, periodic weak Pareto optimality. These solutions are used in inverse DEA, and it is shown that these can be characterized by a simple modification in weighted sum scalarization tool. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Approaches for generating the set of efficient extreme points of the decision set of a multiple-objectivelinear program (P) that are based upon decompositions of the weight set W-0 suffer from one of two special drawbacks. Either the required computations are redundant, or not all of the efficient extreme point set is found. This article shows that the weight set for problem (P) can be decomposed into a partition based upon the outcome set Y of the problem, where the elements of the partition are in one-to-one correspondence with the efficient extreme points of Y. As a result, the drawbacks of the decompositions of W-0 based upon the decision set of problem (P) disappear. The article explains also how this new partition offers the potential to construct algorithms for solving large-scale applications of problem (P) in the outcome space, rather than in the decision space.

The purpose of this paper is to develop an approach to a resource-allocation problem that typically appears in organizations with a centralized decision-making environment, for example, supermarket chains, banks, and universities. The central unit is assumed to be interested in maximizing the total amount of outputs produced by the individual units by allocating available resources to them. We will develop an interactive formal approach based on data envelopment analysis (DEA) and multiple-objective linear programming (MOLP) to find the most preferred allocation plan. The units are assumed to be able to modify their production in the current production possibility set within certain assumptions. Various assumptions are considered concerning returns to scale and the ability of each unit to modify its production plan. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the approach.

The problem (P) of optimizing a linear function d(T)x over the efficient set for a multiple-objectivelinear program (M) is difficult because the efficient set is typically nonconvex. Given the objective function direction d and the set of domination directions D, if d(T) pi greater than or equal to 0 for all nonzero pi epsilon D), then a technique for finding an optimal solution of (P) is presented in Section 2. Otherwise, given a current efficient point ($) over cap chi, if there is no adjacent efficient edge yielding an increase in d(T)x, then a cutting plane d(T)x = dT chi is used to obtain a multiple-objectivelinear program (($) over bar M) with a reduced feasible set and an efficient set ($) over bar E To find a better efficient point, we solve the problem (I-i) of maximizing c(i)(T) chi, over the reduced feasible set in (($) over bar M) sequentially for i. If there is a x(i) epsilon ($) over bar E that is an optimal solution of (I-i) for some i and d(T) chi(i) > dT ($) over cap chi, then we can choose chi(i) as a current efficient point. Pivoting on the reduced feasible set allows us to find a better efficient point or to show that the current efficient point ($) over cap chi is optimal for (P). Two algorithms for solving (P) in a finite sequence of pivots are presented along with a numerical example.
