The aim of usual Dynamic Programming (DP) is to find an optimal object from a finite set of objects. We consider extensions of DP which allow us (i) to describe the set of optimal objects, (ii) to count the number of these objects, (iii) to make sequential optimization relative to different criteria, (iv) to find the set of Pareto optimal points for two criteria, and (v) to describe relationships between two criteria.  The areas of applications include discrete optimization, fault diagnosis, complexity of algorithms, machine learning, and knowledge representation.
