Abstract

This paper presents the theory underlying certain implementation features in an interactive solution framework for solving bicriteria integer programming problems. The solution framework is developed in (Ramesh et al., 1987). In this framework, a decision maker is assumed to have only an implicit utility function of the two objectives he wishes to maximize. The problem is solved by an interactive branch-and-bound method in which the decision-maker’s preference structure is explored and determined using pairwise comparison questions.
