This volume contains the contributions of participants of the
conference "Optimal Control of Partial Differential Equations" held
at the Wasserschloss Klaffenbach near Chemnitz (Saxony, Germany)
from April 20 to 25, 1998. The conference was organized by the
editors of this volume. Along with the dramatic increase in
computer power, the application of PDE-based control theory and the
corresponding numerical algorithms to industrial problems has
become more and more important in recent years. This development is
reflected by the fact that researchers focus their interest on
challenging problems such as the study of controlled
fluid-structure interactions, flexible structures, noise reduction,
smart materials, the optimal design of shapes and material
properties and specific industrial processes. All of these
applications involve the analytical and numerical treatment of
nonlinear partial differential equations with nonhomogeneous
boundary or transmission conditions along with some cost criteria
to be minimized. The mathematical framework contains modelling and
analysis of such systems as well as the numerical analysis and
implemention of algorithms in order to solve concrete problems.
This volume offers a wide spectrum of aspects of the discipline and
is of interest to mathematicians as well as to scientists working
in the fields of applications.
