The articles in this book give a comprehensive overview on the whole field of validated numerics. The problems covered include simultaneous systems of linear and nonlinear equations, differential and integral equations and certain applications from technical sciences. Furthermore some papers which improve the tools are included. The book is a must for scientists working in numerical analysis, computer science and in technical fields.

This volume contains mainly a collection of the invited lectures which were given during a conference on "Fundamentals of Numerical Computation," held in June, 5 - 8, 1979, on the occasion of the centennial of the Technical University of Berlin. About hundred scientists from several countries attended this conference. A preceding meeting on "Fundamentals of Computer-Arithmetic" was held in August, 1975, at the "Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach." The lectures of this conference have been published as Supplementum 1 of Computing (Editors R. Albrecht, U. Kulisch). After a period of...
