Utilizing Parallelism In The Conjugate Gradient Algorithm, Adam James Craig
Utilizing Parallelism In The Conjugate Gradient Algorithm, Adam James Craig
University Honors Theses
This paper develops the original conjugate gradient method and the idea of preconditioning a system. I also propose a unique type of additive-Schwarz preconditioner that can be solved in parallel, which creates a speed increase for large systems. To show this, I developed a C++11 linear algebra library used in conjunction with the OpenMP parallel computing library to empirically show a speed increase.

Dissertations and Theses
Carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) are considered to be promising candidate beyond the conventional CMOSFET due to their higher current drive capability, ballistic transport, lesser power delay product and higher thermal stability. CNFETs show great potential to build digital systems on advanced technology nodes with big benefits in terms of power, performance and area (PPA). Hence, there is a great need to develop proven models and CAD tools for performance evaluation of CNFET-based circuits. CNFETs specific parameters, such as number of tubes, pitch (spacing between the tubes) and diameter of CNTs determine current driving capability, speed, power consumption and area …
