%X This paper presents a new technique for the convergence
acceleration of a large class of series often arising in electromagnetic
problems. The technique is based on the recursive application of the
integration-by-parts technique to discrete sequences, thus the given name
of the "summation-by-parts" technique. It is shown that the new technique
greatly enhances the convergence rate of the series treated, and very
small relative errors are obtained by performing a few simple operations.
The new technique is applied to the efficient numerical calculation of the
Green's functions in a parallel-plate waveguide.
