We propose a sample average approximation (SAA) method for stochastic programming problems involving an expected value constraint. Such problems arise, for example, in portfolio s...
In this paper we study a Monte Carlo simulation based approach to stochastic discrete optimization problems. The basic idea of such methods is that a random sample is generated and...

Various stochastic programmingproblemscan be formulated as problems of optimization of an expected value function. Quite often the corresponding expectation function cannot be com...
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
In this paper, we combine two approaches to handling uncertainty: we use techniques for finding optimal solutions in the expected sense to solve combinatorial optimization proble...
