During the last four decades there has been a remarkable development in optimization and optimal control. Due to its wide variety of applications, many scientists and researchers have paid attention to fields of optimization and optimal control. A huge number of new theoretical, algorithmic, and computational results have been observed in the last few years. This book gives the latest advances, and due to the rapid development of these fields, there are no other recent publications on the same topics.

Key features:

Provides a collection of selected contributions giving a state-of-the-art account of recent developments in the field

Covers a broad range of topics in optimization and optimal control, including unique applications

Includes chapters written by experts in their respective disciplines

Appeals to a broad audience of researchers, practitioners, and advanced graduate students in applied mathematics and engineering

This special issue of Studia Informatica Universalis is dedicated to Catherine Roucairol, Professor Emerita at the Université de Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.Throughout her distinguished career, Professor Roucairol has made fundamental and pro found contributions to the fields of optimization, computing parallelization and operations research. This special issue consists of twelve papers, that covers some of the topics to which Professor Catherine Roucairol has contributed.

This special issue contains a selective collection of carefully refereed papers based on talks presented during the 15th Baikal International School-Seminar on Optimization methods and their applications held during June 23-29, 2011 and dedicated to the memory of Valerian P. Bulatov (1935-2010), who made a number of important contributions to the different helds of optimization and who played a leading role in organization of Baikal conferences. These papers deal with both theoretical and practical aspects of optimization.
