Current across an electrical circuit can be modeled with differential equations. Differential equations can be applied to the periodic measurement of tumor size to determine the rate of growth, and thus the severity of cancerous growth. Linear Algebra Linear algebra is used to resolve problems associated with large-scale systems of linear equations. Such equations may arise from a number of applied fields, including business and sciences. One aspect of linear algebra deals with manipulation of large sparse matrices.
Sparse matrices are matrices that contain a relatively large number of zero entries.
Such matrices are important to the analysis of problems in graph theory, including large-scale task scheduling. Wadsworth Group, a division of Thomson Learning.
