The work­ shop was an integral part of the 1996-97 IMA program on \"MATHEMAT­ ICS IN HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING. \" I would like to thank Marshall Bern (Xerox, Palo Alto Research Cen­ ter), Joseph E. Flaherty (Department of Computer Science, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute), and Mitchell Luskin (School of Mathematics, Uni­ versity of Minnesota), for their excellent work as organizers of the meeting and for editing the proceedings. I also take this opportunity to thank the National Science Founda­ tion (NSF), Department of Energy (DOE), and the Army Research Office (ARO), whose financial support made the workshop possible. Willard Miller, Jr. , Professor and Director v PREFACE Scientific and engineering computation has become so complex that traditional numerical computation on uniform meshes is generally not pos­ sible or too expensive. Mesh generation must reflect both the domain geometry and the expected solution characteristics. Meshes should, fur­ thermore, be related to the solution through computable estimates of dis­ cretization errors. This, suggests an automatic and adaptive process where an initial mesh is enriched with the goal of computing a solution with prescribed accuracy specifications in an optimal manner. While automatic mesh generation procedures and adaptive strategies are becoming available, major computational challenges remain. Three-dimensional mesh genera­ tion is still far from automatic.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-24\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461271918\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4612-1556-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 189\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359186153612,"sku":"9781461271918","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461271918.jpg?v=1775738844","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461271918","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
