Linear optimization with multiple equitable criteria
نویسندگان
چکیده
– The standard multiple criteria optimization starts with an assumption that the criteria are incomparable. However, there are many applications in which the criteria express ideas of allocation of resources meant to achieve some equitable distribution. This paper focuses on solving linear multiple criteria optimization problems with uniform criteria treated in an equitable way. An axiomatic definition of equitable efficiency is introduced as an refinement of Pareto-optimality. Various generation techniques are examined and the structure of the equitably efficient set is analyzed.

Equitable aggregations and multiple criteria analysis
In th epast decade, increasing interest in equity issues resulted in new methodologies in the area of operations research. This paper deals with the concept of equitably efficient solutions to multiple criteria optimization problems. Multiple criteria optimization usually starts with an assumption that the criteria are incomparable. However, many applications arise from situations which present...
متن کاملInequality measures and equitable approaches to location problems
Location problems can be considered as multiple criteria models where for each client (spatial unit) there is de®ned an individual objective function, which measures the eect of a location pattern with respect to the client satisfaction (e.g., it expresses the distance or travel time between the client and the assigned facility). This results in a multiple criteria model taking into account th...
متن کاملFair and efficient network dimensioning with the reference point methodology
The dimensioning of telecommunication networks that carry elastic traffic requires the fulfillment of two conflicting goals: maximizing the total network throughput and providing fairness to all flows. Fairness in telecommunication network design is usually provided using the so-called max-min fairness (MMF) approach. However, this approach maximizes the performance of the worst (most expensive...
متن کاملOn multi - criteria approaches to bandwidth allocation
Modern telecommunication networks face an increasing demand for services. Among these, an increasing number are services that can adapt to available bandwidth, and are therefore referred to as elastic traffic. Nominal network design for elastic traffic becomes increasingly significant. Typical resource allocation methods are concerned with the allocation of limited resources among competing act...
متن کاملControl and Cybernetics Multicriteria Models for Fair Resource Allocation
Resource allocation problems are concerned with the allocation of limited resources among competing activities so as to achieve the best performances. However, in systems which serve many users there is a need to respect some fairness rules while looking for the overall efficiency. The so-called Max-Min Fairness is widely used to meet these goals. However, allocating the resource to optimize th...
