Abstract

In this paper, a multi-parameter error resolution technique is introduced and applied to the collocation method for Volterra integral equations. By using this technique, an approximation of higher accuracy is obtained by using a multi-processor in parallel. Additionally, a correction scheme for approximation of higher accuracy and a global superconvergence result are presented.
