The ability to accurately determine the sensitivity of Riccati             problems leads to the possibility of improving the condition of                 the Riccati equation, thereby improving the closed-loop response,               by making changes in either the underlying system being controlled              or by changing the weighing matrices for the state and input                    variables in the performance index.  An immediate application of                such a procedure involves the optimal positioning of sensors and                actuators, particularly for structures with a large number of                   identical sensor/actuator mechanism, such as large space antennas.              A related question is whether co-locating actuators and sensors                 always leads to the best system performance.  Aspects of a method               for determining optimal changes, in either the underlying system or             the weighing matrices of the performance index, are discussed, as               well as extensions to infinite dimensional distributed parameter                systems.
