Abstract
This article surveys recent developments in the adaptive numerical solution of optimal control problems governed by partial differential equations (PDE). By the EulerβLagrange formalism the optimization problem is reformulated as a saddleβpoint problem (KKT system) that is discretized by a Galerkin finite element method (FEM). Following the Dual Weighted Residual (DWR) approach the accuracy of the approximation is controlled by residualβbased a posteriori error estimates. This opens the way toward systematic complexity reduction in the solution of PDEβbased optimal control problems occurring in science and engineering (Β© 2010 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Solutions to optimization problems with pde constraints inherit special properties; the associated state solves the pde which in the optimization problem takes the role of a equality constraint, and this state together with the associated control solves an optimization problem, i.e. together with mu
