Summary We extend in this paper the analysis of a posteriori estimates of the space discretization error presented in a previous paper [3] for time-independent space meshes. In the context of the model problem studied there, results are given relating the effectiveness of the error estimator to properties of the solution, space meshes, and manner in which the meshes change. A procedure based upon this theory is presented for the adaptive construction of time-dependent meshes. The results of some computational experiments show that this procedure is practically very effective and suggest that it can be used to control the space discretization error in more general problems.
