Decision Networks—A Simplified Application to North Sea Oil
Abstract
Decision networks are a network presentation of dynamic and Markov programming problems. The technique is particularly useful in identifying preferred decisions, from a range of possible decisions, in sequential decision making formulations of a given problem. The technique is introduced by considering an aggregate stock control problem and then applied to an extraction rate problem facing oil companies exploiting North Sea oil reserves.
