			Abstract
Numerical studies on hyperbolic initial-boundary value problems (IBVPs)
have been performed using high-order difference operators satisfying a
summation by parts rule. To assure that the numerical solution is
strictly stable two recently developed methods to implement the analytic
boundary conditions without destroying the summation by parts rule have
been used. Theoretical and numerical results show that the numerical
methods presented here are strictly stable and have a convergence rate
that agrees well with the theory.
