%T Distributing matrix eigenvalue calculations over transputer arrays %A Tim Hopkins, Barry Vowden %E Hussein S. M. Zedan %B OUG\-13: Real\-Time Systems with Transputers %X We discuss the parallel numerical solution of the matrix eigenvalue problem for real symmetric tridiagonal matrices. Instances occur frequently in practice. Two implementations of the Sturm sequence algorithm on transputer arrays are described. For the first the maximum size of matrices which may be accommodated is restricted by the amount of local memory available. The second implementation removes this constraint but requires an increased execution time.
