11.2. Discrete dynamic systems: tabular method, Excel data table, and Solver

The dynamic programming recurrence algorithm can be also applied to typical OC problems expressed for example by the following:
min u { t } J ( u ) = y 2 ( 2 ) + 2 t 0 T u 2 ( t ) d t

s . t . d y ( t ) d t = a y ( t ) + b u ( t ) ,
image
and y ( t ) Y , u ( t ) U t [ t 0 , T ]
The goal, as usual, is to find the admissible optimal u (t) which causes the system
