When the problem at hand can be split in smaller problems, such that -the smaller solutions of an optimal solution are themselves optimal, dynamic -programming can be used to avoid re-calculating solutions to shared sub- -problems. - -Simple problems are both easily specified and easily implemented, but for -complex problems translating the specification of the problem into the -implementation of the dynamic programming algorithm becomes tedious and error -prone. The goal of DPROG is to alleviate this by automatically translating the -specification of the problem into an implementation of the solution. - -The DPROG language is designed to be close to the ``mathematical'' notation -used for expressing recurrences, thus making it easier to specify the problem. -Using the DPROG compiler, the manual implementation step can be completely -avoided. - -WWW: http://www.daimi.au.dk/~mailund/dprog/ |
