A New Algorithm Suitable for Parallel Computing in Solving Linear Equations Involving Block Tridiagonal Coefficient Matrix

BAOR (Block Accelerated Over-Relaxation) method, now commonly used in solving engineering problems involving block tridiagonal coefficient matrix, is not suitable for parallel computing. We now propose a new parallel algorithm that like BAOR algorithm, is good in convergence but, unlike BAOR algorithm, is suitable for parallel computing.In this paper we explain why BAOR algorithm is not suitable for parallel computing. This understanding helps us to make our algorithm suitable for parallel computing. We give one illustrative example. The iterative time needed by our new algorithm is roughly the same as that needed by BAOR algorithm. These results indicate preliminarily that our new algorithm is effective and feasible.
