Biography
Frank Stenger is a professor emeritus at the University of Utah, where he received the distinguished research award. One of the leading contributors to the area of numerical analysis, Dr. Stenger is the main developer of Sinc numerical methods and has authored over 160 papers in various journals.
The author, a well-known expert in this area, has published many papers dealing with various aspects of sinc methods. A key result is that sinc methods can converge very fast under certain assumptions on the given problem. … practical aspects are covered in great detail. In particular, there is an accompanying CD-ROM that contains about 450 MATLAB programs where sinc methods are implemented to solve various problems. The book provides a good description of these programs, so a user with a certain equation to solve can easily find an appropriate sinc algorithm. … it should be useful reading for practitioners who have heard about sinc methods and want to use them.
