Parallel Cholesky factorization on a hypercube multiprocessor

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5304680
Two types of message-passing parallel algorithms are developed for solving symmetric systems of linear equations on a hypercube multiprocessor. One type involves broadcast communication among processors, and the other involves communication along a ring of processors. Details are provided in the form of C programs that implement the algorithms on a hypercube simulator and which should run with little modification on real hypercube hardware. Performance of the various algorithms is demonstrated by means of processor utilization graphs and parallel speedup curves.
