Iterative methods, Chapter 6
- Direct solvers such as Gauss elimination and LU decomposition discussed in connection with project 1.
- Iterative solvers such as Basic iterative solvers, Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel, Successive over-relaxation. These methods are easy to parallelize, as we will se later. Much used in solutions of partial differential equations.
- Other iterative methods such as Krylov subspace methods with Generalized minimum residual (GMRES) and Conjugate gradient etc will not be discussed.
