ABSTRACT: Feasible solutions of Bilevel programming (BLP) problem have to satisfy the optimality conditions of a lower level optimization problem which is defined as part of its constraints. Multiobjective BLP (MOBLP) problems are the special case of BLP problems with multiple objectives at the upper level which require every feasible solution to satisfy the Pareto optimality conditions of a lo...

This paper deals with a nonlinear multiobjective semi-infinite programming problem involving generalized (C,α, ρ, d)-convex functions. We obtain sufficient optimality conditions and formulate the Mond-Weirtype dual model for the nonlinear multiobjective semi-infinite programming problem. We also establish weak, strong and strict converse duality theorems relating the problem and the dual problem.

Within a supply chain, purchasing plays a key role in achieving corporate competition. Hence, selecting the right suppliers is a vital component of these strategies. In practice, supplier selection is a multiobjective programming problem with vagueness and imprecision of the input data. In spite of the importance of the problem, the literature on this subject is relatively scarce. In this paper...

In this paper we present a mathematical programming formulation for the ω invariant of a numerical semigroup for each of its minimal generators. The model consists of solving a problem of optimizing a linear function over the efficient set of a multiobjective linear integer program. We offer a methodology to solve this problem and we provide some computational experiments to show the applicabil...

In this paper, we consider the multiobjective linear programs where coefficients in the objective function belong to uncertainty sets. We introduce the concept of robust efficient solutions to uncertain multiobjective linear programming problems. By using two scalarization methods, the weighted sum method and the ϵ-constraint method, we obtain that the robust efficient solutions for uncertain m...

this paper is focused on the tactical design of steel supply chain (ssc). a general mathematical model is proposed to integrate production and transportation planning in multi-commodity ssc. the main purpose is to prepare a countrywide production and distribution plan in an ssc with three layers consisting of iron ore mines as suppliers, steel companies as producers, and subsidiary steel compan...

This paper presents fuzzy goal programming approach for solving multiobjective quadratic programming problem. The problem deals with a decisionmaking unit with multiple objective functions, which are quadratic in nature and the system constraints are linear functions. In the proposed approach, we first formulate the quadratic membership functions by determining best solution of the objective fu...
