Multiple Criteria Problem Solving

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems ((LNE,volume 155))

Abstract

The paper relates three duality concepts in multiple objective linear programming — the concepts of Gale-Kuhn-Tucker, Isermann and Kornbluth — to each other and indicates some decision-oriented implications of duality.
