A new stepsize change technique for Adams methods

Abstract In this paper a new technique for stepsize changing in the numerical solution of Initial Value Problems for ODEs by means of Adams type methods is considered. The computational cost of the new technique is equivalent to those of the well known interpolation technique (IT). It is seen that the new technique has better stability properties than the IT and moreover, its leading error term is smaller. These facts imply that the new technique can outperform the IT.
