Applied and Numerical Optimal Control, 23-27 April 2012, Paris

The ANOC Spring School and Workshop will bring together researchers in numerical methods for optimal control problems. The aim of this event is to present a broad range of existing methods and discuss the latest developments in the field. A significant part will be devoted to applications of optimal control in various areas.

The workshop will start on 23 April at 9:00 and will end on 27 April at 16:30. 

Organisers:

J.-Frédéric Bonnans, Jean-Baptiste Caillau, Emmanuel Trélat, Hasnaa Zidani
