Dear Reader,
We have recently published the book ‘Computer Mathematics and its
Applications- Advances and Developments (1994-2005) edited by Professor Elias A.
Lipitakis. We hope that you would like to order this interesting new book and for this
reason some synoptic information are presented:
Mathematics, Scientific Computing and
Informatics- Book Series,
Computer Mathematics and its ApplicationsAdvances and Developments (1994-2005)
Volume Editor: Elias A. Lipitakis
2006, LEA Publishers, Athens, Greece
Hardbound, 670 pages
ISBN: 960-87275-9-6

Synoptic Description: This Book is a collection of
thirty five papers, written by distinguished
researchers, leading experts and dealing with
special topics in Computer Mathematics and its
Applications.
The present volume contains selected articles presented by pioneer researchers,
eminent academicians and distinguished university professors, invited speakers in the
HERCMA Conference series in the period 1994-2005. Further information and history of
the biennial HERCMA conference can be found at the electronic address
http://www.aueb.gr/conferences/hercma2007 .
All the selected articles, each of which is devoted to a specialized, but to some
extent independent topic, could be considered that form a scientific research anthology of
representative samples in various directions of research being done in Computer
Mathematics and its Applications.
The scientific subjects and material presented here have far reaching applications
in many areas of Applied Mathematics, Computing Science and Informatics. The main
objective of the Book is to offer comprehensive information leading the Reader from the
fundamental concepts and results of each field to the forefront of scientific research. It is
a valuable and up-to-date introduction for graduate and postgraduate students specializing
in these topics, and for science and technology researchers in universities, academic
research centers and industry.
