Error Estimates for Miller's Algorithm.
This paper derives upper and lower bounds for the -condition number of the stiffness matrix resulting from the finite element approximation of a linear, abstract model problem. Sharp estimates in terms of the meshsize h are obtained. The theoretical results are applied to finite element approximations of elliptic PDE's in variational and in mixed form, and to first-order PDE's approximated using the Galerkin–Least Squares technique or by means of a non-standard Galerkin technique in L1(Ω).

In this note, we compare some Krylov subspace iterative methods on the MASPAR, a massively parallel computer with 16K processors. In particular, we apply these methods to solve large sparse nonsymmetric linear systems arising from elliptic partial differential equations. The methods under consideration include conjugate gradient type methods, semiiterative methods, and a hybrid variant. Our numerical results show that, on the MASPAR, one should compare iterative methods rather on the basis of total...
An algorithm of the preconditioned conjugate gradient method in which the solution of an auxiliary system is replaced with multiplication by the matrix for suitably chosen is presented.
