A straightforward 3-point quadrature formula of closed type is derived that improves on Simpson’s rule. Just using the additional information of the integrand’s derivative at the two endpoints we show the error is sixth order in grid spacing. Various error bounds for the quadrature formula are obtained to quantify more precisely the errors. Applications in numerical integration are given. With ...

An evaluation of the derivative of spherical Bessel functions of order n + 1 2 at its zeros is obtained. Consequently, an explicit quadrature formula for entire functions of exponential type is given.

The results in this paper are motivated by two analogies. First, m-harmonic functions in Rn are extensions of the univariate algebraic polynomials of odd degree 2m−1. Second, Gauss’ and Pizzetti’s mean value formulae are natural multivariate analogues of the rectangular and Taylor’s quadrature formulae, respectively. This point of view suggests that some theorems concerning quadrature rules cou...

this paper proposes a hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function (cdf) of completion time of gert-type networks (gtn) which have no loop and have only exclusive-or nodes. proposed method is cre-ated by combining an analytical transformation with gaussian quadrature formula. also the combined crude monte carlo simulation and combined conditional monte carlo simulation are developed a...

In this paper we examine the computation of the potential generated by space-time BIE representations associated with Dirichlet and Neumann problems for the 2D wave equation. In particular, we consider the efficient evaluation of the (convolution) time integral that appears in the potential representation. For this, we propose two simple quadrature rules which appear more efficient than the cur...
