These eight papers from the August 200 conference, which was designed for interaction amongst those interested in numerical analysis, mathematics and computer science, include such topics as Jacobi sets, approximations of boundary element operators, quantum complexity, straight-line programs. Numerical solutions of structured problems, detecting infeasibility, Maple packages and Java applets. The series is introduced by R. DeVore with some fundamental issues.
