Introduction to Interval Analysis

Ramon E. Moore, R. Baker Kearfott, Michael J. Cloud

This unique book provides an introduction to a subject whose use has
steadily
increased over the past 40 years. An update of Ramon Moore's previous
books on
the topic, it provides broad coverage of the subject as well as the
historical
perspective of one of the originators of modern interval analysis. The
authors
provide a hands-on introduction to INTLAB, a high-quality, comprehensive
MATLAB(r) toolbox for interval computations, making this the first
interval
analysis book that does with INTLAB what general numerical analysis
texts do
with MATLAB.

Readers will find the following features of interest:

* Elementary motivating examples and notes that help maximize the
reader's
chance of success in applying the techniques.

* Exercises and hands-on MATLAB-based examples woven into the text.

* INTLAB-based examples and explanations integrated into the text, a
comprehensive set of exercises and solutions, and an appendix with
INTLAB
