چکیده

The CADNA library enables one to estimate round-off error propagation using a probabilistic approach. The CADNA C version enables this estimation in C or C++ programs, while the previous version had been developed for Fortran programs. The CADNA C version has the same features as the previous one: with CADNA the numerical quality of any simulation program can be controlled. Furthermore by detecting all the instabilities which may occur at run time, a numerical debugging of the user code can be performed. CADNA provides new numerical types on which round-off errors can be estimated. Slight modifications are required to control a code with CADNA, mainly changes in variable declarations, input and output.

Estimation of Round-Off Errors on Several Computer Architectures

Numerical validation of computed results in scienti c computation is always an essential problem as well on sequential architecture as on parallel architecture. The probabilistic approach is the only one that allows to estimate the round-o error propagation of the oating point arithmetic on computers. We begin by recalling the basics of the CESTAC method (Contrôle et Estimation STochastique des...

THE USE OF THE HE'S ITERATION METHOD FOR SOLVING NONLINEAR EQUATIONS USING CADNA LIBRARY

In this paper, we apply the Newton’s and He’s iteration formulas in order to solve the nonlinear algebraic equations. In this case, we use the stochastic arithmetic and the CESTAC method to validate the results. We show that the He’s iteration formula is more reliable than the Newton’s iteration formula by using the CADNA library.

Symptom Evaluation in Pediatric Oncology Outpatient Setting; A Cross-Sectional Study

Detection and management of cancer-related symptoms is a key component in children’s quality of life. We evaluate symptoms and their severity in Iranian pediatric oncology outpatients using Therapy-Related Symptom Checklist for Children (TRSC-C). This was a cross-sectional study conducted in two outpatient pediatric oncology settings. We included all patients aged between 5-17 years. The valida...
