  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Stochastic Programming

Part of the book series: International Series in Operations Research & Management Science ((ISOR,volume 150))

Abstract

Some recent developments in the area of risk aversion in stochastic integer programming are surveyed. After a discussion of modeling guidelines and resulting mean–risk stochastic integer programs emphasis is placed on structural properties of these optimization problems and on algorithms for their solution. Bibliographical notes conclude the Chapter.
