Objectives

Objectives are used to measure the success of the system. Associated with each objective is a positive numerical weight indicating the weighted contribution of this objective to the final success of the system.

Let

\begin{displaymath}O_{1}, O_{2}, \ldots, O_{m}\end{displaymath}

be the m objectives.

Let

\begin{displaymath}W_{1}, W_{2}, \ldots, W_{m}\end{displaymath}

be the m weights.
