Samenvatting	Multi-Objective Linear Programming (MOLP) extends classical linear programming to handle several conflicting linear objective functions simultaneously over a feasible region defined by linear constraints. Instead of a single optimal solution, MOLP produces a Pareto-efficient frontier from which a decision-maker selects a preferred trade-off. It is foundational to operations research and management science for resource allocation, planning, and design problems with competing goals.	Multi-Objective Optimization (MOO) is a mathematical and computational framework for finding solutions that simultaneously optimize two or more conflicting objective functions. Rather than collapsing all goals into a single scalar, MOO produces a set of trade-off solutions — the Pareto front — from which a decision-maker selects according to preference. It is widely used in engineering design, operations research, logistics, economics, and policy analysis.
