contents The time dependent experimental data are always collected at discrete grids with respect to the time t. The step size h of such a grid is always separated from zero by a certain positive number. The same is true for all computations, which are always done on discrete grids with their grid step sizes being not too small. These applied considerations prompt us to introduce a new type of Ill-Posed Problems and Coefficient Inverse Problems (CIP)for parabolic equations. In these problems the t-derivatives of corresponding parabolic operators are written in finite differences with the grid step size being separated from zero. We call this the "t-finite difference framework" (TFD). We address three long standing open questions within the TFD framework. Finally, a numerical method is developed for the CIP of monitoring epidemics. The global convergence of this method is proven.
