|
</SMALL>PSBLAS) is a package of parallel algebraic multi-level preconditioners.
|
||
|
It implements various versions of one-level additive and of multi-level additive
|
||
|
and hybrid Schwarz algorithms. In the multi-level case, a purely algebraic approach
|
||
|
is applied to generate coarse-level corrections, so that no geometric background is needed
|
||
|
concerning the matrix to be preconditioned. The matrix is required to be square, real
|
||
|
or complex, with a symmetric sparsity pattern.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>
|
||
|
MLD2P4 has been designed to provide scalable and easy-to-use preconditioners in the
|
||
|
context of the PSBLAS (Parallel Sparse Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms)
|
||
|
computational framework and can be used in conjuction with the Krylov solvers
|
||
|
available in this framework. MLD2P4 enables the user to easily specify different aspects
|
||
|
of a generic algebraic multilevel Schwarz preconditioner, thus allowing to search
|
||
|
for the ``best'' preconditioner for the problem at hand.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>
|
||
|
The package has been designed employing object-oriented techniques,
|
||
|
using Fortran 95, with interfaces to additional third party libraries
|
||
|
such as UMFPACK, SuperLU and SuperLU_Dist, that
|
||
|
can be exploited in building multi-level preconditioners. The parallel
|
||
|
implementation is based on a Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD)
|
||
|
paradigm for distributed-memory architectures; the inter-process data
|
||
|
communication is based on MPI and is managed mainly through PSBLAS.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<P>
|
||
|
This guide provides a brief description of the functionalities and
|
||
|
the user interface of MLD2P4.
