Gauss-Seidel (GS) relaxation is often employed as a preconditioner for a Krylov solver or as a smoother for Algebraic Multigrid (AMG). However, the requisite sparse triangular solve is difficult to parallelize on many-core architectures such as graphics processing units (GPUs). In the present study, the performance of the traditional GS relaxation based on a triangular solve is compared with two-stage variants, replacing the direct triangular solve with a fixed number of inner Jacobi-Richardson (JR) iterations. When a small number of inner iterations is sufficient to maintain the Krylov convergence rate, the two-stage GS (GS2) often outperforms the traditional algorithm on many-core architectures. We also compare GS2 with JR. When they perform the same number of flops for SpMV (e.g. three JR sweeps compared to two GS sweeps with one inner JR sweep), the GS2 iterations, and the Krylov solver preconditioned with GS2, may converge faster than the JR iterations. Moreover, for some problems (e.g. elasticity), it was found that JR may diverge with a damping factor of one, whereas two-stage GS may improve the convergence with more inner iterations. Finally, to study the performance of the two-stage smoother and preconditioner for a practical problem, %(e.g. using tuned damping factors), these were applied to incompressible fluid flow simulations on GPUs.

The linear equations that arise in interior methods for constrained optimization are sparse symmetric indefinite and become extremely ill-conditioned as the interior method converges. These linear systems present a challenge for existing solver frame
works based on sparse LU or LDL^T decompositions. We benchmark five well known direct linear solver packages using matrices extracted from power grid optimization problems. The achieved solution accuracy varies greatly among the packages. None of the tested packages delivers significant GPU acceleration for our test cases.
We study the use of Krylov subspace recycling for the solution of a sequence of slowly-changing families of linear systems, where each family consists of shifted linear systems that differ in the coefficient matrix only by multiples of the identity.
Our aim is to explore the simultaneous solution of each family of shifted systems within the framework of subspace recycling, using one augmented subspace to extract candidate solutions for all the shifted systems. The ideal method would use the same augmented subspace for all systems and have fixed storage requirements, independent of the number of shifted systems per family. We show that a method satisfying both requirements cannot exist in this framework. As an alternative, we introduce two schemes. One constructs a separate deflation space for each shifted system but solves each family of shifted systems simultaneously. The other builds only one recycled subspace and constructs approximate corrections to the solutions of the shifted systems at each cycle of the iterative linear solver while only minimizing the base system residual. At convergence of the base system solution, we apply the method recursively to the remaining unconverged systems. We present numerical examples involving systems arising in lattice quantum chromodynamics.
Parallel implementations of linear iterative solvers generally alternate between phases of data exchange and phases of local computation. Increasingly large problem sizes on more heterogeneous systems make load balancing and network layout very chall
enging tasks. In particular, global communication patterns such as inner products become increasingly limiting at scale. We explore the use of asynchronous communication based on one-sided MPI primitives in a multitude of domain decomposition solvers. In particular, a scalable asynchronous two-level method is presented. We discuss practical issues encountered in the development of a scalable solver and show experimental results obtained on state-of-the-art supercomputer systems that illustrate the benefits of asynchronous solvers in load balanced as well as load imbalanced scenarios. Using the novel method, we can observe speed-ups of up to 4x over its classical synchronous equivalent.
In this paper we describe the research and development activities in the Center for Efficient Exascale Discretization within the US Exascale Computing Project, targeting state-of-the-art high-order finite-element algorithms for high-order application
s on GPU-accelerated platforms. We discuss the GPU developments in several components of the CEED software stack, including the libCEED, MAGMA, MFEM, libParanumal, and Nek projects. We report performance and capability improvements in several CEED-enabled applications on both NVIDIA and AMD GPU systems.
The parallel strong-scaling of Krylov iterative methods is largely determined by the number of global reductions required at each iteration. The GMRES and Krylov-Schur algorithms employ the Arnoldi algorithm for nonsymmetric matrices. The underlying
orthogonalization scheme is left-looking and processes one column at a time. Thus, at least one global reduction is required per iteration. The traditional algorithm for generating the orthogonal Krylov basis vectors for the Krylov-Schur algorithm is classical Gram Schmidt applied twice with reorthogonalization (CGS2), requiring three global reductions per step. A new variant of CGS2 that requires only one reduction per iteration is applied to the Arnoldi-QR iteration. Strong-scaling results are presented for finding eigenvalue-pairs of nonsymmetric matrices. A preliminary attempt to derive a similar algorithm (one reduction per Arnoldi iteration with a robust orthogonalization scheme) was presented by Hernandez et al.(2007). Unlike our approach, their method is not forward stable for eigenvalues.
