Abstract
In a scheduling or planning process, a hybrid process is determined representing operation of a system. The hybrid process includes stochastic jumps. An approximate linear program is constructed respective to the hybrid process and a set of control actions for controlling the system. The approximate linear program includes a stochastic jump constraint term representative of stochastic jumps of the hybrid process. The approximate linear program is solved. The system is controlled based on the solved approximate linear program.
