PanguLU: A Scalable Regular Two-Dimensional Block-Cyclic Sparse Direct Solver on Distributed Heterogeneous Systems

Sparse LU factorization is essential for scientific and engineering simulations. In this work, we present swSuperLU, a highly scalable sparse direct solver on Sunway manycore architecture based on sparse LU factorization. To improve the ...$$

In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the potential for graphics processing units (GPUs) to speed up the performance of sparse direct linear solvers. Efforts have focused on symmetric positive-definite systems for which no pivoting is ...

This paper presents the first sparse direct solver for distributed memory systems comprising hybrid multicourse CPU and Intel Xeon Pico-processors. It builds on the algorithmic approach of SuperLU_DIST, which is right-looking and statically pivoted. Our ...
