A block-tridiagonal solver with two-level parallelization for finite element-spectral codes

Two-level parallelization is introduced to solve a massive block-tridiagonal matrix system. One-level is used for distributing blocks whose size is as large as the number of block rows due to the spectral basis, and the other level is used for parallelizing in the block row dimension. The purpose of...
