Finding an optimal partition for a numerical integration using the trapezoidal rule

J. Vergnes and J. Dumontet

Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (MATCOM), 1979, vol. 21, issue 2, 231-241

Abstract: When a method of numerical integration is implemented on a computer, it is performed with a limited precision arithmetic. This causes a computing error propagated at the level of each elementary operation and affecting, like the method error, the final computed result.
