@techreport{iiasa4089, month = {December}, type = {IIASA Working Paper}, title = {On Augmented Lagrangian Decomposition Methods for Multistage Stochastic Programs}, address = {IIASA, Laxenburg, Austria}, publisher = {WP-94-125}, year = {1994}, url = {https://pure.iiasa.ac.at/id/eprint/4089/}, abstract = {A general decomposition framework for large convex optimization problems based on augmented Lagrangians is described. The approach is then applied to multistage stochastic programming problems in two different ways: by decomposing the problem into scenarios and by decomposing it into nodes corresponding to stages. Theoretical convergence properties of the two approaches are derived and a computational illustration is presented.}, author = {Rosa, C. H. and Ruszczynski, A.} }
