TY - GEN A1 - Bornemann, Folkmar A. T1 - An Adaptive Multilevel Approach to Parabolic Equations III. N2 - Part III of the paper is devoted to the construction of an adaptive FEM solver in two spatial dimensions, which is able to handle the singularly perturbed elliptic problems arising from discretization in time. The problems of error estimation and multilevel iterative solution of the linear systems - both uniformly well behaved with respect to the time step - can be solved simultaneously within the framework of preconditioning. A multilevel nodal basis preconditioner able to handle highly nonuniform meshes is derived. As a numerical example an application of the method to the bioheat-transfer equation is included. {\bf AMS CLASSIFICATION:} 65F10, 65F35, 65M50, 65M60, 65N30.
