The first Dahlquist barrier states that a zero-stable and linear q-step multistep method cannot attain an order of convergence greater than q + 1 if q is odd and greater than q + 2 if q is even. If the method is also explicit, then it cannot attain an order greater than q ( Hairer, Nørsett & Wanner 1993 , Thm III.3.5).
A linear multistep method is zero-stable if all roots of the characteristic equation that arises on applying the method to ′ = have magnitude less than or equal to unity, and that all roots with unit magnitude are simple. [2]
Explicit multistep methods can never be A-stable, just like explicit Runge–Kutta methods. Implicit multistep methods can only be A-stable if their order is at most 2. The latter result is known as the second Dahlquist barrier; it restricts the usefulness of linear multistep methods for stiff equations. An example of a second-order A-stable ...
For linear multistep methods, an additional concept called zero-stability is needed to explain the relation between local and global truncation errors. Linear multistep methods that satisfy the condition of zero-stability have the same relation between local and global errors as one-step methods.
General linear methods (GLMs) are a large class of numerical methods used to obtain numerical solutions to ordinary differential equations. They include multistage Runge–Kutta methods that use intermediate collocation points , as well as linear multistep methods that save a finite time history of the solution.
This can be contrasted with implicit linear multistep methods (the other big family of methods for ODEs): an implicit s-step linear multistep method needs to solve a system of algebraic equations with only m components, so the size of the system does not increase as the number of steps increases.

The Oscillator Based Associative Recall (OSCAR) Model was proposed by Browne, Preece and Hulme in 2000 [7] The OSCAR Model is another cue driven model of memory. In this model, the cues work as a pointer to a memory’s position in the mind. Memories themselves are stored as context vectors on what Brown calls the oscillator part of the theory.
Germund Dahlquist (16 January 1925 – 8 February 2005) was a Swedish mathematician known primarily for his early contributions to the theory of numerical analysis as applied to differential equations.
