This book introduces multiple criteria and multiple constraint levels linear programming (MC 2 LP), which is an extension of linear programming (LP) and multiple criteria linear programming (MCLP). In the last decade, the author and a group of researchers from the USA, China, Korea, Germany, and Hungary have been working on the theory and applications of MC 2 LP problems. This volume integrates their main research results ranging from theoretical bases to broad areas of real world applications. The theoretical bases include the formulation of MC 2 LP; integer MC 2 LP and MC 2 transportation model; fuzzy MC 2 LP and fuzzy duality of MC 2 LP; optimal system designs and contingency plans; MC 2 decision support system; and MC 2 computer software development. The application areas are accounting, management information systems, production planning, and telecommunications management.

The book serves as a seminar text for both undergraduates and graduates who have a linear algebra or equivalent background. For practitioners, it will help in handling LP type problems in multiple decision making environment.
