Sintesi	Maintenance Optimization is a quantitative framework for determining the timing, type, and frequency of maintenance actions—preventive, predictive, or corrective—that minimize total cost or expected downtime over a system's operational life. Systematic formulations were consolidated by Hongzhou Wang (2002), whose survey unified age-replacement, block-replacement, and imperfect-repair policies under a common cost-rate structure applicable to deteriorating systems across engineering and operations management.	Degradation models estimate product lifetime by tracking measurable performance characteristics—such as crack length, light output, or insulation resistance—over time rather than waiting for outright failure. Introduced in rigorous form by Meeker, Escobar, and Lu (1998), these models fit a stochastic degradation path to repeated measurements and define failure as the first time the characteristic crosses a predetermined threshold, enabling reliable lifetime inference from accelerated test data with very few or no observed failures.	Dynamic Programming (DP) is an exact optimization technique introduced by Richard Bellman in 1957 for solving multi-stage decision problems. It decomposes a complex problem into simpler, overlapping subproblems, solves each subproblem once, and stores the results to avoid redundant computation. Grounded in the Principle of Optimality, DP guarantees globally optimal solutions whenever the problem exhibits overlapping subproblems and optimal substructure.
