In this article, the identification of an unknown time-dependent source term in an inverse problem of parabolic type with nonlocal boundary conditions is considered. The main approach is to change the inverse problem to a system of Volterra integral equations. The resulting integral equations are convolution-type, which by using Sinc-collocation method, are replaced by a system of linear algebraic equations. The convergence analysis is included, and it is shown that the error in the approximate solution is bounded in the infinity norm by the norm of the inverse of the coefficient matrix multiplied by a factor that decays exponentially with the size of the system. To show the efficiency of the present method, an example is presented. The method is easy to implement and yields very accurate results.

In this paper an effective meshless and integration-free numerical scheme for solving an inverse spacewise-dependent heat source problem is proposed. Due to the use of the fundamental solution as basis functions, the method leads to a global approximation scheme in both spatial and time domains. The
