    In minimum deviation problems one seeks to minimize the difference between maximum and average weight in a solution. This paper introduces a general solution scheme that is also suited for balanced optimization, i.e. the problem to find a solution that has a minimal deviation between the largest and the smallest weight. The approach is analyzed with respect to computational complexity for spanning trees, paths and Steiner trees in graphs.
