Rational methods for abstract linear, non-homogeneous problems without order reduction

Starting from an A-stable rational approximation to $\rm{e}^z$ of order $p$, $$r(z)= 1+ z+ \cdots + z^p/ p! + O(z^{p+1}),$$ families of stable methods are proposed to time discretize abstract IVP's of the type $u'(t) = A u(t) + f(t)$. These numerical procedures turn out to be of order $p$, thus overcoming the order reduction phenomenon, and only one evaluation of $f$ per step is required.
