+In  this article,  a  two-stage  iterative method is proposed to improve  the
+convergence of Krylov based iterative ones,  typically those of GMRES variants. The
+principle of  the proposed approach  is to  build an external  iteration over  the Krylov
+method, and to  frequently store its current  residual   (at  each
+GMRES restart for instance). After a given number of outer iterations, a minimization
+step  is applied  on the  matrix composed by the  saved residuals,  in  order to
+compute a better solution while making  new iterations if required.  It is proven that
+the proposal has  the same convergence properties than the  inner embedded method itself. 
+Experiments using up  to 16,394 cores also show that the proposed algorithm
+run around 7 times faster than GMRES.

+Iterative methods have recently become more attractive than  direct ones to  solve very large
+sparse  linear systems.  They are more  efficient  in a  parallel
+context,  supporting  thousands  of  cores,  and they require  less  memory  and  arithmetic
+operations than direct  methods. This is why new iterative  methods are frequently 
+proposed or adapted by researchers, and the increasing need to solve very large sparse
+linear  systems  has triggered the  development  of such efficient iterative  techniques
+suitable for parallel processing.
+
+Most of the successful iterative methods currently available are based on so-called ``Krylov
+subspaces''. They  consist in forming a  basis of successive matrix
+powers multiplied by an initial vector, which can be for instance the residual. These methods use vectors orthogonality of the Krylov  subspace  basis in order to solve  linear
+systems.  The  most known iterative  Krylov subspace methods  are conjugate
+gradient and GMRES ones (Generalized Minimal RESidual).
+
+
+However,  iterative  methods suffer  from scalability  problems  on parallel
+computing  platforms  with many  processors, due  to  their need  of  reduction
+operations, and to  collective    communications   to  achive   matrix-vector
+multiplications. The  communications on large  clusters with thousands  of cores
+and  large  sizes of  messages  can  significantly  affect the  performances  of these
+iterative methods. As a consequence, Krylov subspace iteration methods are often used
+with preconditioners in practice, to increase their convergence and accelerate their
+performances.  However, most  of the  good preconditioners  are not  scalable on
+large clusters.
+
+In this research work, a two-stage algorithm based on  two nested iterations
+called inner-outer  iterations is proposed.  This algorithm  consists in solving  the sparse
+linear system iteratively  with a small number of  inner iterations, and restarting
+the outer  step with a  new solution minimizing  some error functions  over some
+previous residuals. This algorithm is iterative and easy to parallelize on large
+clusters. Furthermore,  the   minimization  technique   improves  its   convergence  and
+performances.
+
+The present  article is  organized as follows.   Related works are  presented in
+Section~\ref{sec:02}. Section~\ref{sec:03} details the two-stage algorithm using
+a  least-square  residual   minimization,  while  Section~\ref{sec:04}  provides
+convergence  results  regarding this  method.   Section~\ref{sec:05} shows  some
+experimental  results  obtained  on  large  clusters  using  routines  of  PETSc
+toolkit. This research work ends by  a conclusion section, in which the proposal
+is summarized while intended perspectives are provided.

-\section{A Krylov two-stage algorithm}
-We propose a two-stage algorithm to solve large sparse linear systems of the form $Ax=b$ based on iterative Krylov sub-space methods.
-

-\begin{algorithm}[!h]
-\caption{A Krylov two-stage algorithm}
+\section{Two-stage algorithm with least-square residuals minimization}
+\label{sec:03}
+A two-stage algorithm is proposed  to solve large  sparse linear systems  of the
+form  $Ax=b$,  where  $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times   n}$  is  a  sparse  and  square
+nonsingular   matrix,   $x\in\mathbb{R}^n$    is   the   solution   vector,   and
+$b\in\mathbb{R}^n$ is  the right-hand side.  As explained previously, 
+the algorithm is implemented  as an
+inner-outer iteration  solver based  on iterative Krylov  methods. The  main 
+key-points of the proposed solver are given in Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}.
+It can be summarized as follows: the
+inner solver is a Krylov based one. In order to accelerate its convergence, the 
+outer solver periodically applies a least-square minimization  on the residuals computed by  the inner one. %Tsolver which does not required to be changed.
+
+At each outer iteration, the sparse linear system $Ax=b$ is partially 
+solved using only $m$
+iterations of an iterative method, this latter being initialized with the 
+best known approximation previously obtained. 
+GMRES method~\cite{Saad86}, or any of its variants, can be used for instance as an
+inner solver. The current approximation of the Krylov method is then stored inside a matrix
+$S$ composed by the successive solutions that are computed during inner iterations.
+
+At each $s$ iterations, the minimization step is applied in order to
+compute a new  solution $x$. For that, the previous  residuals are computed with
+$(b-AS)$. The minimization of the residuals is obtained by 
+\begin{equation}
+   \underset{\alpha\in\mathbb{R}^{s}}{min}\|b-R\alpha\|_2
+\label{eq:01}
+\end{equation}
+with $R=AS$. Then the new solution $x$ is computed with $x=S\alpha$.
+
+
+In  practice, $R$  is a  dense rectangular  matrix belonging in  $\mathbb{R}^{n\times s}$,
+with $s\ll n$.   In order  to minimize~(\eqref{eq:01}), a  least-square method  such as
+CGLS ~\cite{Hestenes52}  or LSQR~\cite{Paige82} is used. Remark that these  methods are more
+appropriate than a single direct method in a parallel context.

+
+Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}  summarizes  the principle  of  our  method.  The  outer
+iteration is  inside the for  loop. Line~\ref{algo:solve}, the Krylov  method is
+called for a  maximum of $max\_iter_{kryl}$ iterations.  In practice, we  suggest to set this parameter
+equals to  the restart  number of the  GMRES-like method. Moreover,  a tolerance
+threshold must be specified for the  solver. In practice, this threshold must be
+much  smaller  than the  convergence  threshold  of  the TSARM  algorithm  (\emph{i.e.}
+$\epsilon_{tsarm}$).  Line~\ref{algo:store}, $S_{k~ mod~ s}=x^k$ consists in copying the
+solution  $x_k$  into the  column  $k~  mod~ s$ of  the  matrix  $S$. After  the
+minimization, the matrix $S$ is reused with the new values of the residuals.  To
+solve the minimization problem, an  iterative method is used. Two parameters are
+required for that: the maximum number of iteration and the threshold to stop the
+method.
+
+Let us summarize the most important parameters of TSARM:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item $\epsilon_{tsarm}$: the threshold to stop the TSARM method;
+\item $max\_iter_{kryl}$: the maximum number of iterations for the Krylov method;
+\item $s$: the number of outer iterations before applying the minimization step;
+\item $max\_iter_{ls}$: the maximum number of iterations for the iterative least-square method;
+\item $\epsilon_{ls}$: the threshold used to stop the least-square method.
+\end{itemize}
+
+
+The  parallelisation  of  TSARM  relies   on  the  parallelization  of  all  its
+parts. More  precisely, except  the least-square step,  all the other  parts are
+obvious to  achieve out in parallel. In  order to develop a  parallel version of
+our   code,   we   have   chosen  to   use   PETSc~\cite{petsc-web-page}.    For
+line~\ref{algo:matrix_mul} the  matrix-matrix multiplication is  implemented and
+efficient since the  matrix $A$ is sparse and since the  matrix $S$ contains few
+colums in  practice. As explained  previously, at least  two methods seem  to be
+interesting to solve the least-square minimization, CGLS and LSQR.
+
+In the following  we remind the CGLS algorithm. The LSQR  method follows more or
+less the same principle but it take more place, so we briefly explain the parallelization of CGLS which is similar to LSQR.
+

+  \Input $A$ (matrix), $b$ (right-hand side)
+  \Output $x$ (solution vector)\vspace{0.2cm}

+  \State $s=p$
+  \State $g=||s||^2_2$
+  \For {$k=1,2,3,\ldots$ until convergence (g$<\epsilon_{ls}$)} \label{algo2:conv}
+    \State $q=Ap$
+    \State $\alpha=g/||q||^2_2$
+    \State $x=x+alpha*p$
+    \State $r=r-alpha*q$
+    \State $s=A'*r$
+    \State $g_{old}=g$
+    \State $g=||s||^2_2$
+    \State $\beta=g/g_{old}$
+  \EndFor
+\end{algorithmic}
+\label{algo:02}
+\end{algorithm}
+
+
+In each iteration  of CGLS, there is two  matrix-vector multiplications and some
+classical operations:  dots, norm, multiplication  and addition on  vectors. All
+these operations are easy to implement in PETSc or similar environment.

+\section{Convergence results}
+\label{sec:04}
+Let us recall the following result, see~\cite{Saad86}.
+\begin{proposition}
+Suppose that $A$ is a positive real matrix with symmetric part $M$. Then the residual norm provided at the $m$-th step of GMRES satisfies:
+\begin{equation}
+||r_m|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{m}{2}} ||r_0|| ,
+\end{equation}
+where $\alpha = \lambda_min(M)^2$ and $\beta = \lambda_max(A^T A)$, which proves 
+the convergence of GMRES($m$) for all $m$ under that assumption regarding $A$.
+\end{proposition}

+In order to see the influence of our algorithm with only one processor, we first

+Table~\ref{tab:01},  we  show  the  matrices  we  have used  and  some  of  them

+
+The following  parameters have been chosen  for our experiments.   As by default
+the restart  of GMRES is performed every  30 iterations, we have  chosen to stop
+the GMRES every 30 iterations, $max\_iter_{kryl}=30$).  $s$ is set to 8. CGLS is
+chosen  to minimize  the least-squares  problem with  the  following parameters:
+$\epsilon_{ls}=1e-40$ and $max\_iter_{ls}=20$.  The external precision is set to
+$\epsilon_{tsarm}=1e-10$.  Those  experiments have been performed  on a Intel(R)
+Core(TM) i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz with the version 3.5.1 of PETSc.
+
+
+In  Table~\ref{tab:02}, some  experiments comparing  the solving  of  the linear
+systems obtained with the previous matrices  with a GMRES variant and with out 2
+stage algorithm are  given. In the second column, it can  be noticed that either
+gmres or fgmres is used to  solve the linear system.  According to the matrices,
+different  preconditioner is used.   With TSARM,  the same  solver and  the same
+preconditionner is used.  This Table shows that TSARM can drastically reduce the
+number of iterations to reach the  convergence when the number of iterations for
+the normal GMRES is more or less  greater than 500. In fact this also depends on
+tow  parameters: the  number  of iterations  to  stop GMRES  and  the number  of
+iterations to perform the minimization.

+In order to perform larger  experiments, we have tested some example application

+\item ex54 is another example based on 2D problem discretized with quadrilateral

+For more technical details on  these applications, interested reader are invited
+to  read the  codes available  in the  PETSc sources.   Those problem  have been

+Table~\ref{tab:03} shows  the execution  times and the  number of  iterations of
+example ex15  of PETSc on the  Juqueen architecture. Differents  number of cores
+are  studied rangin  from  2,048  upto 16,383.   Two  preconditioners have  been
+tested.   For those experiments,  the number  of components  (or unknown  of the
+problems)  per processor is  fixed to  25,000. This  number can  seem relatively
+small. In fact, for  some applications that need a lot of  memory, the number of
+components per processor requires sometimes to be small.
+
+In this Table, we  can notice that TSARM is always faster  than FGMRES. The last
+column shows the ratio between FGMRES and the best version of TSARM according to
+the minimization procedure: CGLS or LSQR.
