Rounding Errors in Algebraic Processes

Offers an analysis of the rounding errors made in elementary arithmetic operations and inner products, for both floating-point arithmetic and fixed-point arithmetic. The results are applied in error analyses of a variety of computations involving polynomials as well as the solution of linear systems, matrix inversion, and eigenvalue computations.
Rounding Errors in Algebraic Processes was the first book to give systematic analyses of the effects of rounding errors on a variety of key computations involving polynomials and matrices.

A detailed analysis is given of the rounding errors made in the elementary arithmetic operations and inner products, for both floating-point arithmetic and fixed-point arithmetic. The results are then applied in the error analyses of a variety of computations involving polynomials as well as the solution of linear systems, matrix inversion, and eigenvalue computations.

The conditioning of these problems is investigated. The aim was to provide a unified method of treatment, and emphasis is placed on the underlying concepts.

This book is intended for mathematicians, computer scientists, those interested in the historical development of numerical analysis, and students in numerical analysis and numerical linear algebra.
