Abstract
AbstractAfter first formulating the problem of the Marine Environmental Protection program of the Coast Guard as a multiple‐objective linear program, we investigate the applicability and limitations of goal programming. We point out how the preemptive goal‐programming approach is incompatible with utility preferences. Then we observe the tendency of optimal solutions for standard linear goal programs to occur at extreme points. We also note problems of more general approaches, such as dealing with additively separable approximations to preferences.
