Abstract
A method of constructing optimal controls for two-phase Stefan problems is proposed. The control action is performed via boundary conditions of the mixed type. An elliptic degeneration of the Stefan problems is admitted. Discrete approximations to the optimal control problems are constructed. A discussion of the results of some corresponding numerical experiments is given.
