In this paper, we develop the a posteriori error estimation of hp-version interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin discretizations of elliptic boundary-value problems. Computable upper and lower bounds on the error measured in terms of a natural (mesh-dependent) energy norm are derived. The bounds are explicit in the local mesh sizes and approximation orders. A series of numerical experiments illustrate the performance of the proposed estimators within an automatic hp-adaptive refinement procedure.
