Optimization problems arising in practice usually contain several random parameters. Hence, in order to obtain optimal solutions being robust with respect to random parameter variations, the mostly available statistical information about the random parameters should be considered already at the planning phase. The original problem with random parameters must be replaced by an appropriate deterministic substitute problem, and efficient numerical solution or approximation techniques have to be developed for those problems. This proceedings volume contains a selection of papers on modelling...

This vo1ume contains most of the papers (two of the~ as extended abstracts) presented at a meeting on stochastic programming, held at Oberwolfach, January 28 - February 3, 1979. A1though the number of participants had to be small for technical rea- sons, the area covered by the 1ectures during the meeting was rather broad. lt contains fundamental theoretical problems - e.g. continuity in parametric programming, optima1ity conditions and decision rules for stochastic programming problems and convexity statements also nee- ded for chance constrained problems - as well as very important prac-...

In order to obtain more reliable optimal solutions of concrete technical/economic problems, e.g. optimal design problems, the often known stochastic variations of many technical/economic parameters have to be taken into account already in the planning phase. Hence, ordinary mathematical programs have to be replaced by appropriate stochastic programs. New theoretical insight into several branches of reliability-oriented optimization of stochastic systems, new computational approaches and technical/economic applications of stochastic programming methods can be found in this volume.
