From the reviews:"The purpose of this book is to describe, in a unified manner, several topics in the areas of linear, nonlinear, and combinatorial multiobjective programming, goal programming, and multiobjective heuristics. The book also discusses several applications: portfolio optimization problems, optimal bed allocation in hospitals, scheduling of water distribution systems, routing in Internet protocol (IP) networks, and transportation problems such as train timetable information and airline crew scheduling. ... The book is well written. The papers are clearly presented and there are no fundamental technical errors." (Petrica Pop, ACM Computing Reviews, February, 2010)
