Summary
Offers a comprehensive presentation of some of the successful domain decomposition preconditioners for finite and spectral element approximations of partial differential equations. This book places strong emphasis on both algorithmic and mathematical aspects. It covers some important methods such as FETI and balancing Neumann-Neumann methods
