Abstract

SummaryWe target the parallel solution of sparse linear systems via iterative Krylov subspace–based methods enhanced with incomplete LU (ILU)‐type preconditioners on clusters of multicore processors. In order to tackle large‐scale problems, we develop task‐parallel implementations of the classical iteration for the CG method, accelerated via ILUPACK and ILU(0) preconditioners, using MPI + OmpSs. In addition, we integrate several communication‐avoiding strategies into the codes, including the butterfly communication scheme and Eijkhout's formulation of the CG method. For all these implementations, we analyze the communication patterns and perform a comparative analysis of their performance and scalability on a cluster consisting of 16 nodes, with 16 cores each.
