In this paper we discuss the use of the sum-factorization for the calculation of the integrals arising in Galerkin isogeometric analysis. While introducing very little change in an isogeometric code based on element-by-element quadrature and assembling, the sum-factorization approach, taking advantage of the tensor-product structure of splines or NURBS shape functions, significantly reduces the quadrature computational cost. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.
