Abstract

In this paper, we study the convergence of both relaxed multisplitting method and nonstationary two-stage multisplitting method associated with a multisplitting which is obtained from the ILU factorizations for solving a linear system whose coefficient matrix is anH-matrix. Also, parallel performance results of nonstaionary two-stage multisplitting method using ILU factorizations as inner splittings on the IBM p690 supercomputer are provided to analyze theoretical results.
