Fast Algorithms for Structural Optimization and Least Squares.

Abstract

This report summarizes the activities in support of the Air Force Research Project AFOSR-83-0255 during the past year. Efforts have been made to develop, test and analyze new fast techniques in matrix analysis for structural computations and least squares problems. Applications of this work include structural design and dynamics, and least squares filtering in signal processing. Implementations and tests have been made on modern high performance architectures such as the Cray X-MP, Alliant FX/8, Sequent Balance and the Intel iPSC Hypercube. Our recent work on parallel algorithms for near real-time signal processing computations has led to especially significant results. Keywords: Abstracts; Numerical linear; Algebra; Parallel processing; Signal processing, Structural optimization. (Author)
