Rename pseudo-spectral #106

Open ryancoe opened 4 years ago

ryancoe commented 4 years ago

@gbacelli and I have had some discussions about potentially renaming PseudoSpectral to something more along the lines of Numerical Optimal Control. Pseudo spectral is the method of obtaining a solution, but doesn't really describe the controller...

I think Numerical Optimal Control might be a little too generic, unless you mean it to be a catch-all. I have a paper here that uses CMA-ES to optimise combustion control and I think you could call that numerical optimal control as well.

Given the close relationship to the complex conjugate controller, why not "Constrained Complex Conjugate" (CCC) control?

@gbacelli - Any thoughts on "Constrained Complex Conjugate" control?
