We describe some extensions to Parallel Sparse BLAS (PSBLAS), a library of routines providing basic Linear Algebra operations needed to build iterative sparse linear system solvers on distributed-memory parallel computers. We focus on the implementation of parallel Additive Schwarz preconditioners. widely used in the solution of linear systems arising from a variety of applications. We report a performance analysis of these PSBLAS-based preconditioners on test cases arising from automotive engine simulations. We also make a comparison with equivalent software from the well-known PETSc library.

Abstract
We describe some extensions to Parallel Sparse BLAS (PSBLAS), a library of routines providing basic Linear Algebra operations needed to build iterative sparse linear system solvers on distributed-memory parallel computers. We focus on the implementation of parallel Additive Schwarz preconditioners. widely used in the solution of linear systems arising from a variety of applications. We report a performance analysis of these PSBLAS-based preconditioners on test cases arising from automotive engine simulations. We also make a comparison with equivalent software from the well-known PETSc library.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
