He has co-authored about 130 papers mostly devoted to MCDA methodology, algorithms, telecommunication applications, and environmental applications in journals including European Journal of Operational Research, 4OR, Computers and Operations Research, Journal of Heuristics, Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Networks, Decision Support Systems, Group Decision and Negotiation, International Transactions in Operational Research, Telecommunication Systems, Photonic Network Communications, Technological Forecasting and Social Change.
A peculiar feature of this book is the authors' intention to explain concepts and methods of multiobjective linear programming through examples in low dimensional spaces without any theorems or proofs. This enables the readers grasp the whole content of the book without advanced mathematics background. The book is clearly written, accompanied with exercises for training at the end of each chapter. It is a nice contribution to the field of multiobjective optimization. (Dinh The Luc, zbMATH 1358.90123, 2017) The authors present a textbook in multiobjective programming, based on their vast teaching and research experience. They focus in particular on linear and integer multiobjective programming problems. ... The authors provide many illustrative examples, as well as exercise (many of them with solution). This makes the book very useful for undergraduate and graduate students in all the areas where multiobjective programming appears, e.g. students in engineering or economics.
