Abstract
The two-point boundary-value problem associated with Pontryagin´s maximum principle, when optimization is performed to minimize a quadratic cost function, is eliminated. It is replaced by two equations of known variables consisting of the system parameters, the optimizing period, and the weighting factors of the cost function.
