    A standard dynamic programming algorithm for solving a discrete-time optimization problem is described. In order to take advantage of the multiprocessor feature, it is shown how computations on the state variables can be performed in parallel. On this basis a parallel algorithm is realized on the CRAY-2 environment. Its performances are analyzed through an application to a simplified correction problem for geostationary satellites.
