About the Objective Functions

The value of the objective function is calculated as a sum of all objective components with corresponding weight and scale factors.

The objective function formula is shown below:

(Objective=Sum(OBJi×Wi/Si),

where OBJi is the ith objective component (parameter), Wi is the corresponding weight factor, and Si is the corresponding scale factor. Plus (+) is used for minimization and minus (–) is used for maximization of the objective component.
