A functional argument in the equation is of the Hale type. As a limit of piecewise classical solutions we obtain a viscosity solution of the main problem. Presented method is an adaptation of Tonelli's constructive method to the partial differential-functional equation. It is also shown that this approach can be improved by the vanishing viscosity method and regularisation process.", keywords = "viscosity solutions, parabolic equation, differential-functional equation", issn = "1232-9274" }
