About this title

Synopsis

This book is the first to pay special attention to the combined issues of speed and numerical reliability in algorithm development. These two requirements have often been regarded as competitive, so much so that the design of fast and numerically reliable algorithms for large-scale structured systems of linear equations, in many cases, remains a significant open issue. Fast Reliable Algorithms for Matrices with Structure helps bridge this gap by providing the reader with recent contributions written by leading experts in the field. The authors deal with both the theory and the practice of fast numerical algorithms for large-scale structured linear systems. Each chapter covers in detail different aspects of the most recent trends in the theory of fast algorithms, with emphasis on implementation and application issues. Both direct and iterative methods are covered.

Thomas Kailath is Hitachi America Professor in Engineering at Stanford University. He is the author of Linear Systems (Prentice-Hall, 1980) and coauthor of Discrete Neural Computation: A Theoretical Foundation (Prentice-Hall, 1995), Indefinite Quadratic Estimation and Control (SIAM, 1999), and Linear Estimation (Prentice-Hall, in press). Among other honors, he has held Guggenheim and Churchill fellowships, was awarded the 1995 IEEE Education Medal, and is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Ali H. Sayed is Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering at the University of California, Los Angeles. He is coauthor of Indefinite Quadratic Estimation and Control (SIAM, 1999) and Linear Estimation (Prentice-Hall, in press). He serves on the editorial board of SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications and is the corecipient (with T. Kailath) of the 1996 IEEE Donald G. Fink Award.
