In this paper, a goal programming method (GPM) is presented that has, as its objective, the generation of the priority vector whose associated comparison values are, on average, the closest to the ...

This paper looks at connections between the multi-criteria techniques of goal programming, compromise programming, and the reference point method. The utility function structure of each method is ...

Any modifications are automatically incorporated into the linear preemptive goal program. RiverWare’s combination of detailed system representation, policy expression flexibility, and computational ...
