We postulate the problem of optimal load shedding over multiple rounds to prevent cascading failure in power networks as a dynamic programming problem over a state space consisting of discrete and continuous variables, corresponding to link active status and demand-supply at the nodes respectively. We propose a generic branch and bound algorithm for this problem, and present tools to reduce the associated computational complexity. In particular, we adapt results on rank one perturbations of pseudo-inverse of Laplacian matrices to compute flow redistribution under link failure, and introduce monotonicity properties under which the set of control policies requiring consideration reduces to a considerably small set. These tools are illustrated in the context of proportional load shedding control and simple network topologies. Simulation results to compare the residual load under an optimal control policy and under an optimal proportional control policy, on a benchmark IEEE network, are also included.
