The popular k-step Adams Moulton class requires single step methods to obtain the (k-1) starting values. In this paper we consider a collocation approach at the various interpolation points to obtain a set of k-multistep methods. The set of methods are of uniform order and A-stable. Two examples are presented here. ER -
