Graph Theory and Sparse Matrix Computation: v. 56 (The IMA Volumes in Mathematics and its Applications) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

When reality is modelled by computation, matrices are often the connection between the continuous physical world and the finite algorithmic one. Usually, the more detailed the model, the bigger the matrix; however, efficiency demands that every possible advantage be exploited. The articles in this volume are based on recent research on sparse matrix computations. They examine graph theory as it connects to linear algebra, parallel computing, data structures, geometry and both numerical and discrete algorithms. The articles are grouped into three general categories: graph models of symmetric matrices and factorizations; graph models of algorithms on nonsymmetric matrices; and parallel sparse matrix algorithms.
