1. Introduction.-It has been an intuitive assumption for some time that if a control system is beingoperated from a limited source of power then the system can be moved from one state to another in the shortest. time by at all times utilizing properly all available power. This hypothesis is called the" bang-bang principle." Bushaw accepted this hypothesis and in 1952 showed for some simple systems with one degree of freedom that of all bang-bang systems (that is, systems which at all times utilize maximum power) there is one that is optimal.'In 1953 I made the observation that the best of all bang-bang systems, if it exists, is then the best of all systems operating from the same power source. 2More recently fairly general results have been obtained by Bellman, Glicksberg, and Gross3 and later (but seemingly independently) by Krasovskii4 and Gamkrelidze. 6 At the 1958 International Congress of Mathematicians in Edinburgh, LS Pontryagin announced a" maximum principle" whichis the beginning of an even moregeneral theory.-We confine ourselves here to the time optimal problem for control systems which are linear in the sense that the elements being controlledare linear and as a function of time the control enters linearly. The differential equation for such systems is x (t)= A (t) x (t)+ B (t) u (t)+ f (t),(1) where x and f are n-dimensional vector functions (x (t) is the state of the system at time t), A is an (n X n) matrix function, and B is an (n X r) matrix function. Thus (1) represents the system of differential equations n r xii (t) E aij (t) x,(t)+ E bik (t) uk (t)+ f (t), i= 1,., n. j= 1 k= 1
