Abstract

This report contains a compilation of selected references which have been useful in the preparation of lectures and in assigning outside reading for the numerical mathematics courses taught in the Department of Computer Science at Southern Methodist University. Introductory remarks describe the environment in which the courses are taught as well as criteria for reference selection. The references are divided up into eleven sections:1. General Texts; 2. Numerical Approximation, Interpolation, and Extrapolation; 3. Numerical Integration and Differentiation; 4. Numerical Linear Algebra; 5. Numerical Solution of Differential Equations; 6. Software Influences; 7. Symbolic and Algebraic Manipulation; 8. Computational Complexity; 9. Hardware Influences; 10. Computer arithmetic; 11. Recommended Periodicals. In addition, many of the references are placed in one or more of three categories: generally-recognized classics in a subject area; relatively applied presentations; works containing extensive bibliographical material. Brief descriptions of the courses which utilize the references are included along with a list of sources for research and technical reports.
