Engineering Applications of Multi-objective Programming: Recent Results

  • Conference paper
Multiple Criteria Decision Making

Abstract

Several kinds of techniques for multiple criteria decision making have been developed for the last few decades. Above all, the aspiration level approach to multi- objective programming problems and AHP are widely recognized to be effective in many practical fields.

The author has been trying to apply the satisficing trade-off method, which is one of the aspiration level approaches, to several kinds of practical problems, Some of them were already performed in real life. In this paper, recent results in feed formation in stock farms and erection management of cable stayed bridges will be reported. In addition, a new application of AHP to multi-objective route search in car navigation systems will also be reported.
