Summary
In this paper, we consider the problem of solving linear systems where the matrix
is singular but the equations are consistent. Block two-stage methods in which the inner
iterations are performed using alternating methods are studied. These methods are
ideal for parallel processing and provide a very general setting to study parallel block
methods including overlapping. Convergence properties of these methods are studied
when the matrix in question is either M-matrix or symmetric positive semidefinite
matrix. The reported experiments show the behavior and effectiveness of the designed
parallel algorithms for the solution of Markov chains by exploiting the benefits of
shared memory inside the nodes of current SMP supercomputers.
