U.S.-France Cooperative Research: Theory and Practice of Parallel Linear Algebra in Computer Algebra

该奖项为期三年，为美法在计算机代数中平行线性代数理论与实践的合作研究提供支持。此次合作涉及由特拉华大学的B. David Saunders和法国格勒诺布尔国立理工学院的Gilles Villard领导的研究小组。目标是为符号线性代数中的一些问题开发并行解决方案。这些问题包括有限域上大型稀疏线性系统的解，多项式域和整数域上矩阵范式的计算。这些小组在实现和算法开发和分析方面具有互补的专业知识。该项目将为高性能计算生成有效的、可分发的代码。

This three-year award provides support for US-France cooperative research on the theory and practice of parallel linear algebra in computer algebra. The collaboration involves research groups led by B. David Saunders at the University of Delaware and Gilles Villard at the Institut National Polytechnique in Grenoble, France. The objective is to develop parallel solutions for a number of problems in symbolic linear algebra. These problems include the solution of large sparse linear systems over finite fields and the computation of matrix normal forms over polynomial domains and over integers. The groups have complementary expertise in implementation and in algorithm development and analysis. The project will produce an effective, distributable code for high performance computing.
