We construct a collocation method based on the fractional B-splines to solve a nonlinear differential problem that involves fractional derivative, i.e. the fractional order logistic equation. The use of the fractional B-splines allows us to express the fractional derivative of the approximating function in an analytic form. Thus, the fractional collocation method is easy to implement, accurate and efficient. Several numerical tests illustrate the efficiency of the proposed collocation method.
