Abstract

Sparse linear systems occur in areas such as finite element methods and statistics. These systems are often solved on parallel computers due to their size. In this paper a theoretical analysis of parallel sparse QR factorisation using a multifrontal method is undertaken. The analysis is quantified by some estimates of parallel speeds up for various parallel computers. These estimates show that only moderate parallel speedups can be attained.
