Recent advances in control and estimation for nonlinear distributed parameter systems are surveyed in 16 original papers, presented at the International Conference on Control of Distributed Parameter Systems, held in Graz, Austria, July 15-21, 2001. This conference was the eighth in a series of conferences starting with 1982. Theoretical and numerical issues are addressed. Investigated topics include: numerical methods for partial differential equations (PDEs); optimal control in fluid mechanics; shape optimisation, etc.
