ICMS 2024 Session: Numerical Software for Special Functions

ICMS 2024: Home, Sessions

Organizers

• Amparo Gil

  (U. Cantabria, Spain. IFIP WG2.5 Numerical Software).

• Javier Segura

  (U. Cantabria, Spain. IFIP WG2.5 Numerical Software).

Aim and Scope

Special functions appear in a vast number of scientific applications where numerical values for the functions are required. Recent numerical software for the computation of special functions will be presented in this session.

Topics

• Numerical Software for Special Functions and Applications

All talks in this session will take place on Wednesday, July 24, Room MCS3055. The schedule is as follows:
