Abstract:In this paper we present a methodology for data accesses when solving batches of Tridiagonal and Pentadiagonal matrices that all share the same left-hand-side (LHS) matrix. The intended application is to the numerical solution of Partial Differential Equations via the finite-difference method, although the methodology is applicable more broadly. By only storing one copy of this matrix, a significant reduction in storage overheads is obtained, together with a corresponding decrease in compute time. Taken togeth… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
