Variable-precision arithmetic considered perilous - a detective story.
Control strategies for nonlinear dynamical systems often make use of special system properties, which are, for example, differential flatness or exact input-output as well as input-to-state linearizability. However, approaches using these properties are unavoidably limited to specific classes of mathematical models. To generalize design procedures and to account for parameter uncertainties as well as modeling errors, an interval arithmetic approach for verified simulation of continuoustime dynamical...
This paper concerns accuracy-guaranteed numerical computations for linear systems. Due to the rapid progress of supercomputers, the treatable problem size is getting larger. The larger the problem size, the more rounding errors in floating-point arithmetic can accumulate in general, and the more inaccurate numerical solutions are obtained. Therefore, it is important to verify the accuracy of numerical solutions. Verified numerical computations are used to produce error bounds on numerical solutions....
