Abstract

This paper is concerned with the solution of a linear system with multiple right-hand sides. Such problems arise from nonlinear, time-dependent, inverse, or optimization problems. In order to solve these problems efficiently we use block variants of the conjugate gradient method and combine them with cache aware algorithms. Further, we describe the acceleration of algebraic multigrid (AMG) methods by using such cache aware algorithms. Finally, numerical studies are presented that show the high efficiency of the proposed methods.
