This method works especially well for modeling complex systems whose behavior is affected by memory and nonlocal effects that happen across several scales.

As a result, the time-dependent problem is transformed into a recurrent sequence of boundary value problems for elliptic FIDEs. The radial basis function (RBF) method is then applied, where each stationary solution is approximated as a linear combination of radial basis functions centered at specific points, along with polynomial basis functions. The placement of these center points is outlined for both two-dimensional and three-dimensional regions. Collocation at center points generates a sequence of linear systems with integral coefficients. To compute these coefficients numerically, parameterization is performed, and Gauss–Legendre and trapezoidal quadratures are used. The shape parameter of the RBFs is optimized through a real-coded genetic algorithm.
