Computing the Determinants in the Multiprocessor Computer

Salman H. Abbas

This paper presents a new parallel algorithm for computing the determinants of block matrices of order ð�?¤ × ð�?¤, with Computational Complexity ð�?�? ð�?¤ 3ð�?�?2 2 , using the Gauss elimination method and Abbas's block method 7 as references. We present our algorithm using Ada-multitasking. The algorithm is numerically stable and has been tested in the Sequent Balance machine with efficient utilization of all processors
