ICOSAHOM'04

This grant covered partial cost of the organization of the 6th International Conference on Spectral and High-Order Methods (ICOSAHOM '04) held at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island on June 21-25,2004. It was the 6th ICOSAHOM conference with the first one taking place in Como (Italy) in 1989. Many of the invited and contributed talks contained new theoretical and applications results of spectral and high-order methods which had not been published yet. The general research area of high-order and spectral methods, although relatively mature in some areas, has experienced a very rapid growth over the last few years. This is partly due to several new theoretical and algorithmic developments and partly due to a growing understanding that such methods are important and often essential when considering the solution of large scale time-dependent problems
