Particular attention The series is dedicated to theoretical and must be given to exact formulation of the problem, computational aspects of the analysis of seismolog to questions of uniqueness and stability, to the con ical data. The present state of this field is typical fidence limits of the results, etc. This general ap of our times. The rapidly increasing flow of infor proach is required in solving the main problems of mation is already too vast to be processed or even modern seismology, which are by definition general comprehended in a traditional way. This has forced problems. This approach has other advantages."
