DLP denotes a dynamic-linear modeling and optimization approach to computational decision support for resource planning problems that arise, typically, within the natural resource sciences and the disciplines of operations research and operational engineering. The text examines the techniques of dynamic programming (DP) and linear programming (LP). DLP also connotes a broad modeling/algorithmic concept that has numerous areas of application. Two motivating examples provide a linking thread through the main chapters. The appendix provides a demonstration program, executable on a PC, for hands-on experience with the DLP approach.
