Optimal control theory for differential equations is a pivotal discipline that combines rigorous mathematical analysis with practical applications in engineering, economics, and the natural sciences.
Differential equations and systems analysis. Undergraduate controls and/or signal processing course would satisfy this requirement. A graduate-level systems course is also helpful, but not necessary.
Optimal control problems in differential equations concern the formulation and solution of problems where the objective is to determine a control function that optimises a given performance criterion, ...
