the purpose of this book is to unify and
來源：香港大書城megBookStore,http://www.megbook.com.hk document in one place many of the techniques and much of the
current understanding about solving systems of linear equations on
vector and parallel computers. this book is not a textbook,but it
is meant to provide a fast entrance to the world of vector and
parallel processing for these linear algebra applications. we
intend this book to be used by three groups of readers: graduate
students, researchers working in computational science, and
numerical analysts. as such, we hope this book can serve both as a
reference and as a supplement to a teaching text on aspects of
scientific computation.
the book is divided into five major parts: 1 introduction to
terms and concepts, including an overview of the state of the art
for high-performance computers and a discussion of performance
evaluation chapters 1-4; 2 direct solution of dense matrix
problems chapter 5; 3 direct solution of sparse systems of
equations chapter 6; 4 iterative solution of sparse systems of
equations chapters 7-9; and 5 iterative solution of sparse
eigenvalue problems chapters 10-11. any book that attempts to
cover these topics must necessarily be somewhat out of date before
it appears, because the area is in a state of flux. we have
purposely avoided highly detailed descriptions of popular machines
and have tried instead to focus on concepts as much as possible;
nevertheless, to make the description more concrete, we do point to
specific computers.
