Abstract
The topic of this chapter is the Aitken-Schwarz method on strip-like subdomains for
separable, second order elliptic differential operators. The Aitken-Schwarz approach
is essentially an extrapolation of the boundary conditions on the inter-partition interfaces.
Its fast convergence property, which is backed up by numerical experiments,
makes the method well suited for parallel metacomputing settings. A reformulation
of the method that aims to reduce the preprocessing costs is presented and its convergence
is examined in numerical experiments.
