Reviews

From the reviews: This is collection of 15 chapters, mostly on topics related to numerical computation ... . The target audience consists of researchers, practitioners, and students. ... The typesetting is of high quality, and there many well-rendered mathematical problems on display. ... the book includes a tantalizingly short introduction to quantum computing. ... this could become a worthwhile first approach to a new computing paradigm ... . Again the included references will help those interested in the subject. (A. Squassabia, ACM Computing Reviews, February, 2010)
