Abstract: | In this paper, we address the problem of solving sparse symmetric linear systems on parallel computers. With further restrictive
assumptions on the matrix (e.g., bidiagonal or tridiagonal structure), several direct methods may be used. These methods give
ideas for constructing efficient data parallel preconditioners for general positive definite symmetric matrices. We describe
two examples of such preconditioners for which the factorization (i.e., the construction of the preconditioning matrix) turns
out to be parallel.
