Claim 7:
8. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving data associated with an operational control problem;
formulating said operation control problem as an optimization problem;
recursively generating a sequence of policies of operational control associated with said operational control problem, wherein each subsequent policy in said sequence is constructed by modifying one or more actions at a single state in a preceding policy in said sequence, and wherein said modifying monotonically changes a risk associated with said subsequent policy;
constructing, from said sequence of policies, an optimal solution path, wherein each vertex on said optimal solution path represents an optimal solution to said operational control problem;
calculating a ratio of reward to risk for each of said vertices on said path; and
selecting one of said policies in said sequence to apply to said operational control problem, based, at least in part, on said calculated ratios.
