Abstract

We present new local-memory multiprocessor algorithms for solving sparse triangular systems of equations that arise in the context of Cholesky factorization. Unlike in the existing algorithms, we use the notion of the elimination tree and achieve significant improvement in the performance of both the forward and backward substitution phases. Our algorithms also incorporate the generalization of an important technique of Li and Coleman that gave rise to the best performance for dense triangular system solution.
