DESCRIPTION:I will review two topological approaches to stirri
 ng and mixing.  The first involves constructing sy
 stems such that the fluid motion is topologically 
 complex\, usually by imposing a specific motion of
  rods.  I will discuss optimization strategies tha
 t can be implemented.  The second is diagnostic\, 
 where flow characteristics are deduced from observ
 ations of periodic or random orbits and their topo
 logical properties.\n
