ROMP-FS1 is a research-oriented mathematical programming model designed for the analysis of farming systems using linear programming.

The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of discrete stochastic sequential programming and to illustrate the technique through a numerical example. The application of the technique to empirical problems involving decision making will be briefly discussed and an empirical application...

Systematic approaches to validation of linear programming models are discussed for prescriptive and predictive applications to economic problems. Specific references are made to a general linear programming formulation, however, the approaches are applicable to mathematical programming...

The Objectives of this paper are: (1) to introduce the concept of spline functions; and (2) to account for complete and partial non-reversibility with spline functions. This paper illustrates this approach using a supply response example.

Dynamic programming models with continuous state and control variables are solved approximately using numerical methods in most applications. We develop a method for measuring the accuracy of numerical solution of stochastic dynamic programming models. Using this method, we compare the accuracy...
