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.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

James Hardy Wilkinson (1919--1986) was a pioneer in numerical analysis. He graduated in pure mathematics from Trinity College, Cambridge in 1939 and was then drafted into military work with the British Government Ministry of Supply. After World War II ended, he joined Alan Turing at the UK National Physical Laboratory, where he remained his entire career. By 1974 he had become a Special Merit Chief Scientific Officer, a rare appointment. He was elected to the Royal Society in 1969, and in 1970 received both the A. M. Turing award from the Association of Computing Machinery and the John von Neumann award from SIAM. Other honors include being elected Distinguished Fellow of the British Computer Society in 1974 and the MAA Chauvenet Prize in 1987.

Argonne National Laboratory has a Wilkinson Postdoctoral Fellowship in Scientific Computing for early career scientists, and SIAM has two prizes that recognize Wilkinson's contributions: the James H. Wilkinson Prize for Numerical Software and the James H. Wilkinson Prize in Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing, both intended to encourage early career researchers.

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
