Both efficiency and reliability can be further improved by adapting precision and stepsize simultaneously. This paper presents a strategy for adjusting precision and stepsize together to eliminate certain types of path failures that can occur when adapting the two quantities independently, while also reducing the computational effort expended per unit advance along the path.
