Parallel Symbolic Factorization for Sparse LU Factorization with Static Pivoting
In this paper we consider a direct method to solve a sparse unsymmetric system of linear equations Ax = b, which is the Gaussian elimination. This elimination consists in explicitly factoring the matrix A into the product of L and U , where L is a unit lower triangular matrix, and U is an upper triangular matrix, followed by solving LUx = b one factor at a time. One of the main characteristics ...
متن کاملUsing Postordering and Static Symbolic Factorization for Parallel Sparse LU
In this paper we present several improvements of widely used parallel LU factorization methods on sparse matrices. First we introduce the LU elimination forest and then we characterize the L, U factors in terms of their corresponding LU elimination forest. This characterization can be used as a compact storage scheme of the matrix as well as of the task dependence graph. To improve the use of B...
متن کاملUnsymmetric-pattern Multifrontal Methods for Parallel Sparse Lu Factorization
Sparse matrix factorization algorithms are typically characterized by irregular memory access patterns that limit their performance on parallel-vector supercomputers. For symmetric problems, methods such as the multifrontal method replace irregular operations with dense matrix kernels. However, no e cient method based primarily on dense matrix kernels exists for matrices whose pattern is very u...

Static symbolic factorization coupled with supernode partitioning and asynchronous computation scheduling can achieve high giga op rates for parallel sparse LU factorization with partial pivoting This paper studies properties of elimination forests and uses them to optimize supernode partitioning amalgamation and execution scheduling It also proposes supernodal matrix multiplication to speed up...
متن کاملParallel Symbolic Factorization for Sparse LU with Static Pivoting
This paper presents the design and implementation of a memory scalable parallel symbolic factorization algorithm for general sparse unsymmetric matrices. Our parallel algorithm uses a graph partitioning approach, applied to the graph of |A|+ |A| , to partition the matrix in such a way that is good for sparsity preservation as well as for parallel factorization. The partitioning yields a so-call...
