The computational algorithm for the parametric objective function

Saul Guss, Thomas Saaty
Journal: Naval research logistics quarterly
If a linear programming problem involves two objective functions, it is desirable to learn all solutions depending on the relative weight attached to the two functions. This paper presents details of an algorithm which finds these solutions systematically.

Parametric objective function (part 2)—generalization

Saul Guss, Thomas Saaty
Journal: Journal of the Operations Research Society of America
In Part 1 (Saaty, T. L., S. I. Gass. 1954. Parametric objective function (Part 1). J. Opns. Res. Soc. Am.2 316.), the cost function in the general linear programming problem was parametrized with one parameter and the problem of generating solutions completely studied. In Part 2, a generalization...

Parametric objective function (part 1)

Saul Guss, Thomas Saaty
Journal: Journal of the Operations Research Society of America
In the linear programming problem where there is a linear function to be optimized (called the objective function), it is desirable to study the behaviour of solutions when the (cost) coefficients in the objective function are parametrized. The problem is then to find the set of xj (j = 1, 2, …, ...
