The problem of maximizing an OWA aggregation of a group of variables that are interrelated and constrained by a collection of linear inequalities is considered by Yager[Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 81(1996) 89-101]. He obtained how this problem can be modelled as a mixed integer linear programming problem. Recently, Carlsson et al. [Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 139(2003) 543-546] obtained a simple algorithm for exact computation of optimal solutions to a constrained OWA aggregation problem with a single constraint on the sum of all decision variables. In this note, we introduce anew approach to the same problem as Carlsson et al. considered. Indeed, it is a direct consequence of a known result of the linear programming problem.
