Title: Parallel matrix computations. Interim report, 1983-1984

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5607023

This project concerns the design and analysis of algorithms to be run in a processor-rich environment. Focus is primarily on algorithms that require no global control and that can be run on systems with only local connections among processors. Properties of these algorithms are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The experimental work is done on the ZMOB, a working parallel computer operated by the Laboratory for Parallel Computation of the Computer Science Department at the University of Maryland. To give the work direction, the authors focused on two areas: 1. dense problems from numerical linear algebra; and 2. the iterative and direct solution of sparse linear systems. The ZMOB hardware and the research projects pursued under this grant support are discussed.
