We consider a backward heat conduction problem (BHCP) with variable
coefficient. This problem is severely ill-posed in the sense of Hadamard and
the regularization techniques are required to stabilize numerical computations.
We use an iterative method based on the truncated technique to treat it. Under
an a-priori and an a-posteriori stopping rule for the
iterative step number, the convergence estimates are established. Some numerical
results show that this method is stable and feasible.
