Description
Summary:ABSTRACT This article presents an interactive computational tool for teaching and providing decision support in multi‐objective linear programming models. The main aim is to offer students in engineering and economics & management a user‐friendly environment where the main theoretical and methodological concepts of multi‐objective optimization can be apprehended through experimentation. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
