In traditional OperationsResearch(OR),operationsare often ratedandoptimizedupon a small set ofparametersonly–
sometimesonlyone single parameter.Thisresultshowever in non-optimal system behaviour.Consider the example of
empty-kilometer minimization.Thisoptimization often resultsin trucksstandingstill,waitingfor a next order (preferably
witha startingpoint equal tothe place ofwaiting).Trucksdonot anticipate on the next order (in a more fruitful region).
Often waitingtime doescost moneyaswell –the driver needstobe paidandthe truckcouldhave been utilizedfor other
purposes.Reviewingsingle optimization parameterscan hardlybe seen separate from other indicators,asthe following
