SOLVING SYSTEM OF LINEAR EQUATIONS USING PARALLEL PROCESSING
ABSTRACT:-
This project is aimed at analyzing the available methods for solving a system of linear
equations of the form n x n. Using a couple of iterative and/or direct methods, implement a
program for these methods that could be run on a parallel processor . At the end, a graph can be
plotted with time taken for execution of a method considered V/s number of processors used (2,
4, 8, 32). For example following questions need to be addressed 1. For a method considered,
evaluate that as the number of processors is increased does the time taken necessarily reduce to
solve the equation(s)2. For a given number of processors which is the best method that could be
employed which takes least time.
