This classic work continues to offer a comprehensive treatment of
the theory of univariate and tensor-product splines. It will be of
interest to researchers and students working in applied analysis,
numerical analysis, computer science, and engineering. The material
covered provides the reader with the necessary tools for
understanding the many applications of splines in such diverse
areas as approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design,
curve and surface design and fitting, image processing, numerical
solution of differential equations, and increasingly in business
and the biosciences. This new edition includes a supplement
outlining some of the major advances in the theory since 1981, and
some 250 new references. It can be used as the main or
supplementary text for courses in splines, approximation theory or
numerical analysis.
