Abstract

The main problem in the integral matrices triangularization is the 'intermediate coefficients swell'. This aspect limits the dimension of treated matrices. Since 1985, we have at our disposal, the lliopoulos algorithm to compute the Hermite Normal Form of an Integer Matrix controlling the coefficients growth by mean of the determinant.We present here two parallelizations of this algorithm and their implementations on a MIMD machine, with 16 processors.
