On discounted stochastic games with incomplete information on payoffs and a security application
(Elsevier, 2014-01)
This paper presents a robust optimization model for n-person finite state/action stochastic games with incomplete information on payoffs. For polytopic uncertainty sets, we propose an explicit mathematical programming ...

Near-optimal modified base stock policies for the capacitated inventory problem with stochastic demand and fixed cost
(World Scientific Publishing, 2014-06)
In this study, we investigate a single-item, periodic-review inventory problem where the production capacity is limited and unmet demand is backordered. We assume that customer demand in each period is a stationary, discrete ...
