Abstract

Numerical methods are generally judged on their ability to produce a reasonably accurate answer in a reasonable amount of time. This paper deals with the latter criterion in the context of non-standard architectures---namely vector and array processors. These architectures owe their very existence to the demands for more computing power than is available on conventional, sequential computers, so speed and efficiency are especially relevant in this area.
