These volumes contain carefully edited selections of papers that were presented at the Symposium on Trends in Approximation Theory, held in May 2000, and at the Oslo Conference on Mathematical Methods for Curves and Surfaces, held in July 2000. Both contain several invited surveys written by leading experts in the field, along with contributed research papers on the most current developments in approximation theory and in the theory and application of curves and surfaces. These books will be of great interest to mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists.

After reading this book, students should be able to analyze computational problems in linear algebra such as linear systems, least squares- and eigenvalue problems, and to develop their own algorithms for solving them.

This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Curves and Surfaces, held in Paris, France, in June 2014. The conference had the overall theme: "Representation and Approximation of Curves and Surfaces and Applications". The 32 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 39 submissions. The scope of the conference was on following topics: approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design, computer graphics and visualization, computational geometry and topology, geometry processing, image and signal processing, interpolation and smoothing, mesh generation, finite elements and splines, scattered data processing and learning theory, sparse and high-dimensional approximation, subdivision, wavelets and multi-resolution method.

This volume constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Mathematical Methods for Curves and Surfaces, MMCS 2016, held in Tønsberg, Norway, in June 2016. The topics range from mathematical theory to industrial applications.

This book takes readers on a multi-perspective tour through state-of-the-art mathematical developments related to the numerical treatment of PDEs based on splines, and in particular isogeometric methods.

This book is dedicated to the memory of Ole-Johan Dahl who passed away in June 2002 at the age of 70, shortly after he had received, together with his colleague Kristen Nygaard, the ACM Alan M. Turing Award:"For ideas fundamental to the emergence of object-oriented programming, through their design of the programming languages Simula I and Simula 67. "This Festschrift opens with a short biography and a bibliography recollecting Ole-Johan Dahl's life and work, as well as a paper he wrote entitled: "The Birth of Object-Orientation: the Simula Languages. " The main part of the book consists of 14 scientific articles written by leading scientists who worked with Ole-Johan Dahl as students or colleagues. In accordance with the scope of Ole-Johan Dahl's work and the book's title, the articles are centered around object-orientation and formal methods.
