This paper is concerned with the step size control for the basic discretization. A special form of error indicator is described, which should permit the use of step sizes appropriate to the particular solution. Such an indicator is obtained as the difference between a special explicit predicted value and a matched implicit corrected value. The linked corrector formulae must be solved by a modified Newton iteration to obtain the derived stability properties. Also, the feasibility of finding smooth solutions with appropriate step sizes, by the use of suitable sets of predictor-corrector formulae is given.
