Iterative Solvers for Linear Systems

The focus of this on-site course is on modern iterative solvers for large linear systems of equations.

Thereby, beside classical schemes and fundamentals of multigrid techniques different modern Krylov subspace methods (CG, GMRES, BiCGSTAB ...) as well as highly efficient preconditioning techniques are presented in the context of real life applications. Hands-on sessions (MATLAB and GNU Octave respectively) will allow users to immediately test and understand the basic constructs of iterative solvers.

This course is co-organised by LRZ and HLRS.
