The shifted Chebyshev operational matrix (COM) of fractional derivatives is derived and used together with spectral methods for solving FDEs. Our approach was based on the shifted Chebyshev tau and collocation methods. The proposed algorithms are applied to solve two types of FDEs, linear and nonlinear, subject to initial or boundary conditions, and the exact solutions are obtained for some tested problems. Numerical results with comparisons are given to confirm the reliability of the proposed method for some FDEs. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
