Description
Summary:Most Multiple Objective Linear Programming (MOLP) algorithms working in the decision variable space, are based on the simplex algorithm or interior-point method of Linear Programming. However, objective space based methods are becoming more and more prominent. This paper investigates three algorithms namely the Extended Multiobjective Simplex Algorithm (EMSA), Arbel’s Affine Scaling Interior-point (ASIMOLP) algorithm and Benson’s objective space Outer Approximation (BOA) algorithm. An extensive review of these algorithms is also included. Numerical results on non-trivial MOLP problems show that EMSA and BOA are at par and superior in terms of the quality of a most preferred nondominated point to ASIMOLP. However, ASIMOLP more than holds its own in terms of computing efficiency.
