Comprises 10 contributions that summarize the state of the art in the areas of high performance solutions of structured linear systems and structured eigenvalue and singular-value problems. Topics covered range from parallel solvers for sparse or banded linear systems to parallel computation of eigenvalues and singular values of tridiagonal and bidiagonal matrices. Specific paper topics include: the stable parallel solution of general narrow banded linear systems; efficient algorithms for reducing banded matrices to bidiagonal and tridiagonal form; a numerical comparison of look-ahead Levinson and Schur algorithms for non-Hermitian Toeplitz systems; and parallel CG-methods automatically optimized for PC and workstation clusters.
