ECE 455 - Computing Methods of Numerical Analysis

3 credits
3 hours lecture
Prerequisites: ECE 250; MTH 212; and MTH 213 or MTH 211
Mathematical methods useful to the computer engineer, including topics from numerical analysis and linear algebra. Students learn how and when to apply a particular numerical analysis tool or method and how to analyze and interpret the results provided by the method. Emphasis is placed on selecting appropriate numerical tools for a variety of basic problems, applying them, and studying their reliability, efficiency, and computer implementation. A large number of problems are solved using the computer.
