Abstract

In this paper, a non-iterative domain decomposition procedure for parabolic integro-differential equation is discussed. While the flux is evaluated explicitly in time at the interface, that is, the inter-domain boundary, an implicit method is used to solve the problem in the sub-domains. A priori error estimates are derived and the result of a numerical experiment is presented.
