A nonlinear parabolic problem with memory effect is considered. We first establish a Carleman type estimate for a linear problem which is the adjoint of a suitable linearization of the nonlinear problem. As a consequence of this estimate we obtain an observability estimate. Then we establish the exact controllability of the linearized system with distributed control over a subdomain. Finally, we arrive at the controllability of the nonlinear system via a classical fixed point theorem. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
