Further PDE Solvers for the NAS Benchmarks

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at CPSP713 Case studies in Computational Science on Spring Semester 1996. Foils prepared 15 March 1996

This is third of three foilsets on CFD and NAS Benchmarks
This completes analysis of parallel ADI from first BT application benchmark
Second (SP) and third(LU) benchmarks with diagonalized ADI and SSOR methods and their parallelization
Details of SSOR and its parallelization with different decompositions
Relation of SSOR to related iterative solvers -- SLOR, red-black, zebra
Brief remarks on other more sophisticated modern solvers
  • ILU and Incomplete Cholesky
  • Domain Decomposition
  • Multigrid


Table of Contents for Further PDE Solvers for the NAS Benchmarks

There are two types of foils -- html and image which are each available in basic and JavaScript enabled "focused" style
(basic:)(focus style:) Denote Foils where Image Critical
(basic:)(focus style:) Denote Foils where HTML is sufficient
