Parallel Preconditioners for an Ocean Model in Climate Simulations

Florian Wilhelm · Repository KITopen (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) · 2012

In this work, we evaluate different solvers and preconditioners for solving the barotropic system of an ocean model to achieve optimal performance on a high-performance computer. In the field of support theory, we derive upper bounds for the condition number of a system that is preconditioned with a block-Jacobi Steiner graph preconditioner. Furthermore, we analyze the application of a high-level approach for programming preconditioners on FPGAs.
