A recently derived Multicriteria Simplex Method [16] is used to study some basic properties in the decomposition of parametric space. A new type of parametric space, which arises naturally in its ...

We consider discounted Markov decision processes (MDPs) with countably-infinite state spaces, finite action spaces, and unbounded rewards. Typical examples of such MDPs are inventory management and ...

The death of mathematician George Dantzig is a scientific watershed. Dantzig developed "linear programming" and the simplex method, used to solve complex efficiency problems for large organizations.
