Variables are sometimes called decision variables and are non-negative Theorem 1: Let R be the feasible region (convex polygon) for a linear programming problem and let Z = ax + by be the ...

Nonstationary infinite-horizon Markov decision processes (MDPs) generalize the most well-studied class of sequential decision models in operations research, namely, that of stationary MDPs, by ...

The choice of optimal rules for selecting information variables and for making decisions is the central problem of the economic theory of teams. This paper shows, by means of an example, how linear ...

Two Variables: Graphical Solution For cases like the one we have here, where there are just two decision variables, there is a quick and easy solution method. This method involves graphical ...
