Second, the conversion to a single-objective optimization problem involves additional constraints. Third, since most real-world goal programming problems involve nonlinear criterion functions, the ...

The feasible solution is obtained by adapting the goal programming method, in which the weighting factors depending on maximum allowable performance variables and performance sensitivities are used.

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 ...
