The Multicomputer Toolbox

• Based on the Zipcode message passing system
• Routines for sparse, dense, and iterative linear algebra algorithms
  • LU factorization
  • GMRES, QMR, PCG
  • Jacobi, SOR iteration
• Defines data structures for distributed matrices and vectors
• Stresses importance of parallel algorithms that are independent of data distribution.
