On the Nature of the Cost-Benefit Schedule
Management Science, 1971In this paper the nature of a set of coat-benefit studied alternatives is studied. An integrated set of submodels is assumed to provide the foundation for a cost-benefit schedule. The model is formulated as an efficiency problem using the technique of vector maximization. Efficient points are characterized by a set of decision rules.
