This volume contains ii papers presented at the First IMA Conference on Fractal Geometry. Mathematical Methods, Algorithms and Applications, held at De Montfort University in September 2ooo. Researchers include many from Europe, Russia, and the United States, giving a multinational emphasis to the fractal geometry problems described. Emphasized are the mathematical exposure given to a problem and the practicalities required to create and implement an algorithm.
"A fascinatingly informative book, recommended to all applied mathematicians, showing the diverse uses of fractal techniques, covered in a basic way so that the non-specialist will be able to understand." -" ""Mathematics Today"
