Summary
The principle of duality for a wide class of distributed parameter systems is developed in this paper. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the primal control problem are utilized to derive the dual and converse dual theorems of the dual problem. An example of the temperature variation in a slab is given to show the application of the theory.
