Samenvatting	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.	A genetic algorithm (GA) is a population-based metaheuristic optimization method introduced by John Henry Holland (1975) that mimics the principles of natural selection. It maintains a population of candidate solutions and iteratively improves them through selection, crossover, and mutation operators, making it especially powerful on discontinuous, non-convex, and multi-modal search spaces where classical gradient-based methods fail.	Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) is a mathematical optimization framework in which some decision variables must take integer values while others may be continuous. It generalizes linear programming and is widely used in operations research, logistics, scheduling, resource allocation, and engineering design, where indivisibility constraints — such as yes/no decisions or whole-unit quantities — arise naturally.
