ABSTRACT = "Rall outlines generation of a code list, adding operations to the code list to
compute derivatives or partial derivatives, and the automatic generation of Taylor series. He
surveys the work in these areas done at the University of Wisconsin roughly between 1960 and 1980.
Automatic differentiation can be applied to ordinary differential equations for either Taylor series
or Lie series solutions. The use of automatic differentiation in nonlinear systems, nonlinear
functionals, analysis of roundoff errors (sensitivity analysis), computational validation of
existence and uniqueness, and quadrature is surveyed. This paper is a good summary of [Rall81a]."
