We consider a boundary optimal control problem for the Maxwell system with a
final value cost criterion. We introduce a time domain decomposition procedure
for the corresponding optimality system which leads to a sequence of
uncoupled optimality systems of local-in-time optimal control problems. In
the limit full recovery of the coupling conditions is achieved, and, hence,
the local solutions and controls converge to the global ones. The process is
inherently parallel and is suitable for real-time control applications.
