Summary

This book was written in response to the increasing interest in the high frequency numerical solution of Maxwell's equations. Research activity in this area has been stimulated by requirements for greater precision in radar cross-section calculations, particularly for geometries with lowobservability; however there are also a growing number of applications in bio-electromagnetism and electromagnetic compatibility. It is hoped that these proceedings will be of interest both to specialists in this area as well as to others simply looking for a guide to recent developments.
