Abstract

In Part I of this paper a large number of Iterated Defect Correction (IDeC) algorithms have been integrated into one model algorithm and jointly analyzed. The demonstration of the practical usefulness of those theoretical results requires numerical experiments with many different IDeC methods. In this part of the paper the results of a number of representative empirical investigations of various IDeC algorithms (for ordinary and partial differential equations) are presented.

Zusammenfassung

Im Teil I dieser Arbeit wurden viele konkrete IDeC (Iterierte Defektkorrektur)-Algorithmen in einem Modellalgorithmus zusammengefaßt und gemeinsam analysiert. Das Aufzeigen der praktischen Nützlichkeit dieser theoretischen Resultate erfordert numerische Experimente mit einer Vielzahl von verschiedenen IDeC-Verfahren. In diesem Teil der Arbeit werden die Resultate einer Reihe von repräsentativen empirischen Untersuchungen an einer Reihe verschiedener IDeC-Algorithmen (für gewöhnliche und partielle Differentialgleichungen) präsentiert.
