Synopsis
Kirk (emeritus, electrical engineering, San Jos State U.) introduces optimal control theory, which "has as its objective the maximization of the return from, or the minimization of the cost of, the operation of physical, social, and economic processes." He concentrates on dynamic programming, Pontryagin's minimum principle, and numerical techniques
