Multiobjective Optimization: A Brief Overview

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Springer Optimization and Its Applications ((SOIA,volume 17))

To define optimality when we are in presence of several conflicting objectives, we need “good” definition of order in Rp. After this, we can study many types of problems: existence of solutions, optimality conditions, and solution methods.
