Dynamic programming is a powerful tool for solving a wide range of optimization problems, from scheduling to resource allocation to network design. This book presents an innovative approach to solving these problems using the branch and bound method, a technique that has typically been used for solving combinatorial problems. With clear explanations, insightful examples, and practical advice, Roy E. Marsten and Thomas L. Morin show how to apply this powerful approach to a variety of dynamic programming problems.
