Vectorization of Recursion Relations.
Abstract
Techniques for efficient vectorization of the simple recursive relation (x sub j) = (a sub j)(x sub (j-1)) + (d sub j) and the tridiagonal series of equations (a sub j)(x sub (j-1)) + (b sub j)(x sub J) + (c sub j)(x sub (j+1)) = (d sub j) are presented. Both problems are solved by a folding procedure similar to that used in computing the fast Fourier transform. The tridiagonal algorithm is a generalized form of the cyclic-reduction technique used by Hockney and Buneman.
