Proceedings of the International Conference on Algorithms for Approximation (2nd) Held in Royal Military College of Science, Shrivenham, England on July 1988. Part 1
Abstract
The forty-one papers in this volume have been arranged into three primary sections: I Development of Algorithms, II Applications, and Catalogue of Algorithms. The first two sections have been subdivided into eight groups: (1) Spline approximation, (2) Polynomial and piecewise polynomial approximation, (3) Interpolation, (4) Smoothing and constraint methods, (5) Complex approximation, (6) Computer-aided design and geometric modelling, (7) Applications in numerical analysis, and (8) Applications in other disciplines. Such a division into sections, while giving the book a useful structure, is somewhat arbitrary, and we apologize to any authors who may feel that their work has been incorrectly categorized. Several papers could have been placed in up to three groups (especially spline approximation, piecewise polynomial approximation, and computer-aided design). Moreover the CAD group, which we have placed in the Applications section could perfectly well have been placed in Section I. Although there is no group headed nonlinear approximation , there are several 'nonlinear algorithms' (in Section II in particular), and of course the complex algorithms (in group 5 and elsewhere) could have come under this heading
