Abstract
Fuzzy relational inequalities with addition–min composition have been proposed to model the data transmission mechanism in a BitTorrent-like peer-to-peer file-sharing system. In this paper, we consider a multiple objective optimization problem which allows system manager to consider three objectives (system congestion, cost, and penalty) simultaneously. A quadratic program is then proposed for finding its efficient solutions. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the procedures of the quadratic programming approach.

Notes
In general, the leecher \(A_i\) may send various qualities for different requests \(A_j\)s. But this really depends on the software/protocal which handles the file-sharing among peers. In this paper, we follow the settings from previous papers (see Guu and Wu 2017; Guu et al. 2018; Li and Yang 2012; Yang 2014; Yang et al. 2016) which obviously considered a simplified scenario that the leecher \(A_i\) only sends the same \(x_i\) to different \(A_j\)s.
