 e-Business Plan Tutorial: Project Objectives
Formally then, an objective is a statement, derived from a business goal, that describes a short-term, specific, verifiable condition that must exist to fulfill the affiliated goal.
If a mission statement expresses what is to be done and goals state how the promise of the mission statement is to be fulfilled, then project objectives state when, where, who, and by how much.
In fact some people refer to an objective as a subgoal.

 How Design Goals are used by the Optimizers
The Max Error and the GL2 Error objective functions are more suitable for inequality and window specifications, as they become negative when all goals are exceeded by some margin.
The optimal solution in terms of one objective function may be different (and it usually is) from the optimal solution in terms of another objective function.
An error function for every goal and at every frequency point is formulated based on the response value, goal value, the type of specification and the weight.
