  • Edited Proceedings in Domain Decomposition

    Our group is active in the international conferences on domain decomposition methods, and three co-PIs have, during this project, assumed editorial responsibilities for these proceedings, as listed chronologically below. The annual domain decomposition proceedings have become a prime archive for work related to this project. As an example of the scale of this activity, the proceedings of DD-9 contains exactly 100 invited and contributed papers.
