The aim of this dissertation is to present a locally finite decomposition of univariate spline spaces on uniform knot sequences and adapt the locally finite decomposition to a bounded interval. The spline space defined for a given knot sequence is decomposed as the direct sum of a spline space defined on a coarser knot sequence and a complementary spline subspace. The complementary subspace is spanned by translates of a spline function which satisfies the same symmetry characteristics as spline wavelets. For a bounded interval, our decomposition and reconstruction algorithms are presented and compared with Quak and Weyrich's spline wavelet algorithms for a bounded interval. In addition, we investigate spline wavelet decomposition coefficients for non-uniform, non-periodic knot sequences.
