In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem involving second-order hyperbolic systems with boundary controls. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived and a result on the existence of optimal controls is obtained. Also, a computational algorithm which generated minimizing sequences of controls is devised and the convergence properties of the algorithm are investigated.
