Publisher Description
This superlative resource describes user experience with existing software, predicts which methods might appear in commercial products of tomorrow and demonstrates how imaginative users can make a program achieve purposes its designers never envisioned. The first segment deals with general issues of program construction and mathematical technique including the current topic of error estimation. The second section addresses the classical "interior problem" which covers most microwave device design, followed by the "exterior problem" which focuses on radiated fields and features the latest methods for mesh truncation along with ways to persuade present-day commercial
software to deal with open problems. The final part lists a selection of programs and their suppliers.
