<I>Additive Schwarz</I> preconditioners are DD preconditioners using overlapping

The main motivation for choosing Additive Schwarz preconditioners is their
intrinsic parallelism. A drawback of these
preconditioners is that the number of iterations of the preconditioned solvers

MLD2P4 uses a pure algebraic approach for building the sequence of coarse matrices
