Abstract

This report on research in numerical computation is part of the Computer Science and Engineering Research Study (COSERS) which is aimed at technically educated people outside the Computer Science field. This goal led the panel to face many difficult choices between precise, but excessively technical, descriptions and looser, but more accessible expositions. The panel hopes that all readers will keep this in mind.
