Abstract

In this paper we suggest an algorithm for solving a multiobjective stochastic linear programming problem with normal multivariate distributions. The problem is first transformed into a deterministic multiobjective problem introducing the expected value criterion and an utility function. The obtained problem is reduced to a monobjective quadratic problem using a weighting method. This last problem is solved by DC algorithm.
