This volume comprises the proceedings of an IFIP conference held at the University of Santiago de Compostela in July 1987. The conference was devoted to the following topics: state constrained optimal control problems, shape optimization, identification of parameters, stabilisation, controlability, numerical methods and industrial applications.
