Abstract

Infinite‐horizon, countable‐state, continuous‐time Markovian decision models are solved by formulating as a pair of infinite linear‐programming problems. Expected discounted and average returns are considered as criterion functions. For both criterion functions, the existence of deterministic optimal stationary policies is established by solving the associated infinite linear‐programming problems. Computational procedures for finite state and action sets are discussed by considering associated finite linear‐programming problems.

## An algorithm, amenablefor programming on a digital computer, has been presented for the modelling of linear discrete-time systems, as an alternative to the procedure of Shamash (1). The transformations inherent in the procedure are easily accomplished by the synthetic division technique. With t
