    A class of high resolution multidimensional wave-propagation algorithms is described for general time-dependent hyperbolic systems. The methods are based on solving Riemann problems and applying limiter functions to the resulting waves, which are then propagated in a multidimensional manner. For nonlinear systems of conservation laws the methods are conservative and yield good shock resolution. Several examples are included describing gas dynamics, acoustics in a heterogeneous medium, and advection in a stratified flow on curvilinear grids. The software package CLAWPACK implements these algorithms in FORTRAN.
