Book Description

0898713285 978-0898713282 January 1, 1987 1
In this book, which focuses on the use of iterative methods for solving large sparse systems of linear equations, templates are introduced to meet the needs of both the traditional user and the high-performance specialist. Templates, a description of a general algorithm rather than the executable object or source code more commonly found in a conventional software library, offer whatever degree of customization the user may desire.

4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely worth it., March 28, 2003

Frank Bierbrauer (Cardiff, Wales, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Templates for the Solution of Linear Systems: Building Blocks for Iterative Methods (Miscellaneous Titles in Applied Mathematics Series No 43) (Paperback)
An excellent, concise book for the iterative solution of linear systems by a entire plethora of current researchers in the field. It not only quickly introduces the various iterative methods, stationary and non-stationary, e.g. Jacobi, SOR, Gauss-Seidel, Conjugate Gradient etc, but briefly analyses them in terms of current research whether unpreconditioned or preconditioned. In addition it considers other more specialised techniques involving domain decomposition and fast solvers. All round excellent although the book is available for free from the website. Definitely worth it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Overview, May 23, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Templates for the Solution of Linear Systems: Building Blocks for Iterative Methods (Miscellaneous Titles in Applied Mathematics Series No 43) (Paperback)
This is a nice book for a person to get a good overview of iterative methods. The detail is often lacking, however the book is a good introduction to the field. The authors are some of the biggest names in the field and the book shows some insight into the theory and application of iterative methods.
