C remains the top programming language, according to the August index from software QA automation company TIOBE. But the spotlight for up-and-coming language remains focused on R, which continues to ...

Markov renewal programming is treated by linear fractional programming. Particular attention is given to the resolution of tied policies that minimize expected cost per unit time. The multichain case ...

The curse of dimensionality gives rise to prohibitive computational requirements that render infeasible the exact solution of large-scale stochastic control problems. We study an efficient method ...
