Non-Linear Programming Solvers for Decision Analysis

• Several methods have been developed over a number of years for solving decision problems when vague and numerically imprecise information prevails. However, the DELTA method and similar methods give rise to particular bilinear programming problems that are time consuming to solve in a real-time environment. This paper presents a set of benchmark tests for non-linear programming solvers for solving this special type of problems. With two existing linear programming based algorithms, it also investigates the performance of linear programming solvers for special decision situations in decision support systems.
