Abstract:      We provide a framework for the analysis of a large class
of discontinuous methods for second-order elliptic problems. It  allows
for the understanding and comparison of most of the  discontinuous
Galerkin methods that have been proposed for the numerical treatment
of elliptic problems by diverse  communities over three decades.

Keywords:      elliptic problems, discontinuous Galerkin, interior penalty
