Abstract--Chow and Liu considered the problem of approximating discrete joint distributions with dependence tree distributions where the goodness of the approximations were measure...

This paper develops simple approximate methods to analyze a two-stage stochastic distribution system consisting of one warehouse and multiple retailers. We consider local and cent...
As shown in [7], optimal control problems with either ODE or PDE dynamics can be solved efficiently using a setting of consistent approximations obtained by numerical discretizati...
—Many important network design problems can be formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem. A large number of such problems, however, cannot readily be tackled by distribu...
