Since in many finite element problems, lots of operations are repetitive on elements, it is of great interest to study methods that use this repetition in order to vectorize and parallelize the computation. Among these element by element methods, the authors present a preconditioner for the conjugate gradient algorithm. They also present the results of computations run on an Alliant FX/8 machine.
