Of considerable importance to numerical analysts, this text contains the proceedings of the 18th Dundee Biennial Conference on Numerical Analysis, featuring eminent analysts and current topics. The papers cover everything from partial differential equations to linear algebra and approximation theory and contain contributions from the leading experts in the field. The applications range from image processing and molecular dynamics to superconductivity.
If you rely on numerical methods, Numerical Analysis 1999 will serve as an essential guide to the direction of current research.
