Abstract

Under the multi-region and multi-sector consideration, the previous double-objective optimal public investment model is extended to involve optimal employment rate objective and time-flow total income maximization objective first. Then genetic algorithm is applied to solve the multi-objective model. Finally a case study is carried out to verify the superiority of the genetic algorithm-based solution to traditional public investment distribution approach.
