Title : Discontinuous Galerkin Methods

Abstract : In recent years there has been a tremendous interest in the
application of Discontinuous Galerkin methods to problems where the
diffusion is not negligible and more recently to pure elliptic problems.
In this talk, we will present a brief overview of such methods in a
general framework.  In particular we describe the so called
Local Discontinuous Galerkin method.  Theoretical as well as practical
issues will be discussed.

Host: Todd Dupont
