Probability Theory: A Refresher,laws of probability, probability distributions, the mean and variance of random variables, and some “l(fā)imit” theorems. The discussion here is at a very elementary level. If you are familiar with these concepts, you may skip this chapter.

Notation,n this book. Vector notation has been avoided .; although it is more compact and elegant in comparison to component notation, we believe that component notation, in which all quantities are scalar, is usually easier to understand.

Probability Theory: A Refresher,to introduce some basic notions related to this theory. We will discuss the following concepts: random variables, probability of an event, some basic laws of probability, probability distributions, the mean and variance of random variables, and some “l(fā)imit” theorems. The discussion here is at a very

Simulation-Based Optimization: An Overview, defining stochastic optimization. We will then discuss the usefulness of simulation in the context of stochastic optimization. In this chapter, we will provide a broad description of stochastic optimization problems rather than describing their solution methods.

Parametric Optimization: Response Surfaces Neural Networks,optimization purposes, the response surface method (RSM) is admittedly primitive. But it will be some time before it moves to the museum because it is a very robust technique that often works well when other methods fail. It hinges on a rather simple idea — that of obtaining an approximate form of t

Control Optimization with Reinforcement Learning,ment learning (.) is essentially a form of simulation-based dynamic programming and is primarily used to solve Markov and semi-Markov decision problems. It is natural to wonder why the word “l(fā)earning” is a part of the name then. The answer is: pioneering work in this area was done by the artificial
