Planning under uncertainty is a fundamental problem of decision science where solution could advance man`s ability to plan, schedule, design, and control complex situations. Goal is to develop efficient methods for solving an important class of planning problems, namely linear programs whose parameters (coefficients, right hand sides) are not known with certainty. The research concentrated on theoretical tasks of decomposition and importance sampling techniques, implementation, and software development issues and on applications. Research is continuing on use of parallel processors for solving stochastic programs.
