Title: Survey of
Parallel Block Methods for Initial Value Problems
Abstract
Parallel block methods provide interesting schemes. These schemes contain
many tasks which can be computed in parallel and the performance of the
particular parallel block scheme depends on the number of these independent
tasks. We conclude that the algorithms developed are suitable for executing
in fully parallel systems , i.e. MIMD computers. Moreover the solutions of
stiff ODEs using parallel computers offer a promising field for future
research.
