Aztec

Abstract

Aztec is a parallel iterative library for solving a sparse linear systems of equations. Aztec is intended as a software tool for users who want to avoid cumbersome parallel programming details but who have large sparse linear systems that require an efficiently utilized parallel processing system. A collection of data transformation tools are provided that allow for easy creation of distributed sparse unstructured matrices for parallel solution. Once the distributed matrix is created, computation can be performed on any of the parallel machines running Aztec: nCUBE 2, IBM SP2 and Intel Paragon, MPI platforms as well as standard serial and vector platforms.
