  • Abstract
    Direct applications of mathematical programming techniques in numerical solutions of optimal control problems are reviewed. The types of control systems discussed include linear, nonlinear, continuous- and discrete-time, deterministic, stochastic, and distributed-parameter systems. The areas of application include aerospace trajectory optimization and rendezvous problems, computer control of processes, and nuclear reactor control problems. A classified bibliography is included.
