Offered here is an unintimidating introduction to the basic matrix computations of science and engineering. Topics include the solution of linear equations by Gaussian elimination and the related LU decomposition, the QR decomposition and the least squares problem, eigen-system computations, and the singular value decomposition. Algorithms are introduced early in the discussion of each major topic, which allows students to start programming right away.

This new, modernized edition provides a clear and thorough introduction to matrix computations, a key component of scientific computing
Retaining the accessible and hands–on style of its predecessor, Fundamentals of Matrix Computations, Third Edition thoroughly details matrix computations and the accompanying theory alongside the author′s useful insights. The book presents the most important algorithms of numerical linear algebra and helps readers to understand how the algorithms are developed and why they work.
Along with new and updated examples, the Third Edition features:
Throughout the book, numerous new and updated exercises ranging from routine computations and verifications to challenging programming and proofs are provided, allowing readers to immediately engage in applying the presented concepts. The new edition also incorporates MATLAB to solve real–world problems in electrical circuits, mass–spring systems, and simple partial differential equations, and an index of MATLAB terms assists readers with understanding the basic concepts related to the software.
Fundamentals of Matrix Computations, Third Edition is an excellent book for courses on matrix computations and applied numerical linear algebra at the upper–undergraduate and graduate level. The book is also a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners working in the fields of engineering and computer science who need to know how to solve problems involving matrix computations.
DAVID S. WATKINS, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Washington State University. He has published more than 100 articles in his areas of research interest, which include numerical linear algebra, numerical analysis, and scientific computing.
