Multiobjective Optimization

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 5252))

Abstract

This chapter provides a description of multiobjective optimization software with a general overview of selected few available tools developed in the last decade. This chapter can be considered a revision of previous valid papers and chapters on nonlinear multiobjective optimization software such as the ones written by Weistroffer et al. (2005) and Miettinen (1999) that lists existing software packages up to the year 1999. More precisely, this chapter is focused on the tools and features that advisable multiobjective optimization software should contain.
