This survey note describes a new type of distributed parameter control systems—the two-point boundary value problems for infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, particularly, for hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations of second order, some of the discoveries that have been done about it and some unresolved questions.

A proof of a distributed parameter maximum principle is given by using dynamic programming. An example problem involving a nonhomogeneous boundary condition is also treated by using the dynamic programming technique and by extending the definition of the differential operator. It is thus demonstrated that for linear systems the dynamic programming approach is just as powerful as the variational approach originally used to derive the maximum principle.
