Abstract

Three parallel algorithms for the eigensolution of real symmetric matrices of order n on a SIMD-type parallel computer with an associative memory are considered. The algorithms realize various parallel orderings of the Jacobi orthogonalization procedure. A detailed description of the parallel computational process is given which allows the power of the machine to be exploited. The arithmetic parallel complexity achieved for the complete solution is 0(n), the number of parallel data transfers is 0(n log n). The results of algorithm simulations are included.
