Sommario/riassunto

A textbook based on Mount's (U. of Arizona) undergraduate and graduate courses on applying computational methods to the analysis of DNA and protein sequences. Convinced that people who use a computer program should understand how it works, he explains to biologists the underlying algorithms used and assumptions made, as well as limitations of the methods and strategies. Most of the chapters include a flowchart proposing an orderly use of the methods discussed therein. Tables in hyperlinked form identify web sites where software and programming resources are available. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

Sommario/riassunto

The present book deals with the theory of computer arithmetic, its implementation on digital computers and applications in applied mathematics to compute highly accurate and mathematically verified results. The aim is to improve the accuracy of numerical computing (by implementing advanced computer arithmetic) and to control the quality of the computed results (validity). The book can be useful as high-level undergraduate textbook but also as reference work for scientists researching computer arithmetic and applied mathematics.
