Three-Level Parallel J-Jacobi Algorithms for Hermitian Matrices

The paper describes several efficient parallel implementations of the one-sided hyperbolic Jacobi-type algorithm for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of Hermitian matrices. By appropriate blocking of the algorithms an almost ideal load balancing between all available processors/cores is obtained. A similar blocking technique can be used to exploit local cache memory of each processor to further speed up the process. Due to diversity of modern computer architectures, each of the algorithms described here may be the method of choice for a particular hardware and a given matrix size. All proposed block algorithms compute the eigenvalues with relative accuracy similar to the original non-blocked Jacobi algorithm.Comment: Submitted for publicatio

A GPU-based hyperbolic SVD algorithm

A one-sided Jacobi hyperbolic singular value decomposition (HSVD) algorithm, using a massively parallel graphics processing unit (GPU), is developed. The algorithm also serves as the final stage of solving a symmetric indefinite eigenvalue problem. Numerical testing demonstrates the gains in speed and accuracy over sequential and MPI-parallelized variants of similar Jacobi-type HSVD algorithms. Finally, possibilities of hybrid CPU--GPU parallelism are discussed.Comment: Accepted for publication in BIT Numerical Mathematic
