Lioen, W.M. and D.T. Winter, Solving large dense systems of linear equations on systems with virtual memory and with cache, Applied Numerical Mathematics 10 (1992) 73-85. The problem of solving large full sets of linear equations on a computer with hierarchical memory is considered. Blocked Gaussian elimination and QR factorization are studied in an attempt to apply exactly the same implementations on computers with virtual memory as on computers with cache. This differs slightly from the LAPACK [1] approach which, although aimed at the same architectures, focuses mainly on computers with vector registers and/or cache. Experiments on a Cyber 205 and an Alliant FX/4 are reported.
