Abstract

In this paper we study a class of explicit pseudo two-step Runge-Kutta (EPTRK) methods for first-order ODEs for parallel computers. We investigate linear stability and derive methods with enlarged stability regions. In numerical experiments on a shared memory computer we compare a parallel variable step size EPTRK implementation with the efficient sequential Runge-Kutta method dopri5.
