Efficient Multicore Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication for FE Electromagnetics
D.M. Fernandez, Dennis D. Giannacopoulos, Warren J. Gross · IEEE Transactions on Magnetics · 2009
Multicore systems are rapidly becoming a dominant industry trend for accelerating electromagnetics computations, driving researchers to address parallel programming paradigms early in application development. We present a new sparse representation and a two level partitioning scheme for efficient sparse matrix-vector multiplication on multicore systems, and show results for a set of finite element matrices that demonstrate its potential.
