Abstract

In this paper we present a parallel algorithm for parallel computing the solution of the general restricted linear equations Ax=b,xT, where T is a subspace of ℂn and bAT. By this algorithm the solution x=A (2) T,S b is obtained in n(log 2 m+log 2(ns+1)+7)+log 2 m+1 steps with P=mn processors when m≥2(n−1) and with P=2n(n−1) processors otherwise.
