We consider the policy in a finite dam in which the input of water is formed by a compound Poisson process and the rate of water release is changed instantaneously from a to M and from M to a (M > a) at the moments when the level of water exceeds λ and downcrosses τ (λ > τ) respectively. After assigning costs to the changes of release rate, a reward to each unit of output, and a cost related to the level of water in the reservoir, we determine the long-run average cost per unit time.

We consider a finite dam under the policy, where the input of water is formed by a Wiener process subject to random jumps arriving according to a Poisson process. The long-run average cost per unit time is obtained after assigning costs to the changes of release rate, a reward to each unit of output, and a penalty that is a function of the level of water in the reservoir.

We consider the problem of minimizing the long-run average cost per unit time of operating a finite dam in the class of the policies of the following type. Assume that the dam is initially empty, the release rate is kept at 0 until the dam storage increases to λ, and as soon as this occurs, water is released at rate M, then the output rate is kept at M as long as the dam storage is more than τ and it must be decreased to 0 if the dam storage becomes τ. We assume that the input of water into the finite dam is a Wiener process with non-negative drift μ and variance parameter σ 2. There is a cost in increasing the output rate from 0 to M as well as in decreasing the rate from M to 0 and whenever the dam storage is below level a, there is a penalty cost per unit time depending on the level. A reward is given for each unit of water released. In this paper, the long-run average cost per unit time is determined, and therefore the optimal policy can be found numerically.

In this paper we consider the optimal control of an infinite dam using policies assuming that the input process is a compound Poisson process with a non-negative drift term, and using the total discounted cost and long-run average cost criteria. The results of Lee and Ahn (1998) as well as other well-known results are shown to follow from our results.

We consider Pλ,τM policy of a dam in which the water input is an increasing Lévy process. The release rate of the water is changed from 0 to M and from M to 0 (M>0) at the moments when the water level upcrosses level λ and downcrosses level τ   (τ<λ), respectively. We determine the potential of the dam content and compute the total discounted as well as the long-run average cost. We also find the stationary distribution of the dam content. Our results extend the results in the literature when the water input is assumed to be a Poisson process.
