Goal programming is a technique often used in engineering design activities primarily to find a compromised solution which will simultaneously satisfy a number of design goals. In solving goal ...

All of these are "goal oriented" in that you can objectively measure one outcome against another (lowest cost, highest score, etc.), and feed the information from that iteration back into another ...

This paper proposes a Goal Programming model for the scheduling of production, employment and inventories to satisfy known demand requirements over a finite time horizon. The model sets three separate ...

This example shows how to use PROC LP to solve a linear goal-programming problem. PROC LP has the ability to solve a series of linear programs, each with a new objective function. These objective ...

Input data requirements include (1) physical and economic characteristics of the system; (2) prioritized policy goals; and (3) parameters for automatic linearization. RiverWare automatically generates ...
