In the paper a new software package for solving demanding multi-objective optimization problems, named IND-NIMBUS, is introduced. Its main features and principles are described. The software package in question can be connected to different modelling and simulation tools and therefore it can be used to solve nonlinear, even nonconvex problems, where the function evaluations require the solution of some underlying system, for example, a system of partial differential equations. In addition, the underlying interactive multi-objective optimization method NIMBUS and, in particular, its synchronous version arc described.

W artykule przedstawiono nowy pakiet oprogramowania dla rozwiązywania wieloobiektowych problemów optymalizacji, który nazwano IND-NIMBUS. Główne cechy i zasady programu zostały opisane. Omawiany pakiet oprogramowania może zostać połączony z innymi narzędziami do modelowania i symulacji, a przez to użyty do rozwiązywania problemów nielinearnych, zbiorów niewypukłych, gdzie funkcja oceny wymagają rozwiązania jakiegoś podstawowego systemu, na przykład, systemu częściowych równań różniczkowych. Dodatkowo zostały opisane podstawowa wieloobiektowa interaktywny metoda optymalizacji NIMBUS i jej wersja łuków zsynchronizowanych. (AT)
