“…The QUAD-PACK library (Piessens et al, 1983), for instance, and also well-known commercial libraries, such as NAG (http://www.nag.co.uk) and IMSL (http://www.vni.com), make use of the CC quadrature to numerically integrate functions with singularities, oscillatory functions or functions with weights. Further, the CC quadrature has been used to solve integral equations (Sloan and Smith, 1982;Piessens, 2000;Kang et al, 2002). In particular, if f is Riemann-integrable, it is possible to show that the numerical solution, obtained using the CC quadrature, converges to the exact solution of the integral equation as n → ∞ (Sloan and Smith, 1978).…”
