Abstract

In this paper, an LP problem with convex polyhedral objective coefficients is treated. In the problem, the interactivities of the uncertain objective coefficients are represented by a bounded convex polyhedron (a convex polytope). We develop a computation algorithm of a maxmin achievement rate solution. To solve the problem, first, we introduce the relaxation procedure. In the algorithm, a sub-problem, a bilevel programing problem, should be solved. To solve the sub-problem, we develop a solution method based on a branch and bound method. As a result, it is shown that the problem can be solved by the repetitional use of the simplex method.
