Parallel algorithms for solving linear systems with block-tridiagonal matrices on multi-core CPU with GPU

For solving systems of linear algebraic equations with block-tridiagonal matrices arising in geoelectrics problems, the parallel matrix sweep algorithm, conjugate gradient method with preconditioner, and square root method are proposed and implemented numerically on multi-core CPU Intel with graphics processors NVIDIA. Investigation of efficiency and optimization of parallel algorithms for solving the problem with quasi-model data are performed. © 2012
