The updated 2nd edition of this book covers MDPs in constrained settings and with uncertain transition properties; approximation stochastic annealing, a population-based on-line simulation-based algorithm; game-theoretic method for solving MDPs and more.

Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical solution of the resulting models intractable. In other cases, the system of interest is too complex to allow explicit specification of some of the MDP model parameters, but simulation samples are readily available (e.g., for random transitions and costs).
