\begin{abstract}
-In this paper we propose a two stage iterative method which increases the
-convergence of Krylov iterative methods, typically those of GMRES variants. The
-principle of our approach is to build an external iteration over the Krylov
-method and to save the current residual frequently (for example, for each
-restart of GMRES). Then after a given number of outer iterations, a minimization
-step is applied on the matrix composed of the saved residuals in order to
-compute a better solution and make a new iteration if necessary. We prove that
-our method has the same convergence property than the inner method used. Some
-experiments using up to 16,394 cores show that compared to GMRES our algorithm
-can be around 7 times faster.

+Krylov subspace iteration methods have increasingly become useful and successful techniques for solving linear and nonlinear systems and eigenvalue problems, especially since the increase development of the preconditioners~\cite{Saad2003,Meijerink77}. One reason of the popularity of these methods is their generality, simplicity and efficiency to solve systems of equations arising from very large and complex problems. %A Krylov method is based on a projection process onto a Krylov subspace spanned by vectors and it forms a sequence of approximations by minimizing the residual over the subspace formed~\cite{}.
+
+GMRES is one of the most widely used Krylov iterative method for solving sparse and large linear systems. It is developed by Saad and al.~\cite{Saad86} as a generalized method to deal with unsymmetric and non-Hermitian problems, and indefinite symmetric problems too. In its original version called full GMRES, it minimizes the residual over the current Krylov subspace until convergence in at most $n$ iterations, where $n$ is the size of the sparse matrix. It should be noted that full GMRES is too expensive in the case of large matrices since the required orthogonalization process per iteration grows quadratically with the number of iterations. For that reason, in practice GMRES is restarted after each $m\ll n$ iterations to avoid the storage of a large orthonormal basis. However, the convergence behavior of the restarted GMRES, called GMRES($m$), in many cases depends quite critically on the value of $m$~\cite{Huang89}. Therefore in most cases, a preconditioning technique is applied to the restarted GMRES method in order to improve its convergence.
+
+In order to enhance the robustness of Krylov iterative solvers, some techniques have been proposed allowing the use of different preconditioners, if necessary, within the iteration instead of restarting. Those techniques may lead to considerable savings in CPU time and memory requirements. Van der Vorst in~\cite{Vorst94} has proposed variants of the GMRES algorithm in which a different preconditioner is applied in each iteration, so-called GMRESR family of nested methods. In fact, the GMRES method is effectively preconditioned with other iterative schemes (or GMRES itself), where the iterations of the GMRES method are called outer iterations while the iterations of the preconditioning process referred to as inner iterations. Saad in~\cite{Saad:1993} has proposed FGMRES which is another variant of the GMRES algorithm using a variable preconditioner. In FGMRES the search directions are preconditioned whereas in GMRESR the residuals are preconditioned. However in practice the good preconditioners are those based on direct methods, as ILU preconditioners, which are not easy to parallelize and suffer from the scalability problems on large clusters of thousands of cores.
+
+Recently, communication-avoiding methods have been developed to reduce the communication overheads in Krylov subspace iterative solvers. On modern computer architectures, communications between processors are much slower than floating-point arithmetic operations on a given processor. Communication-avoiding techniques reduce either communications between processors or data movements between levels of the memory hierarchy, by reformulating the communication-bound kernels (more frequently SpMV kernels) and the orthogonalization operations within the Krylov iterative solver. Different works have studied the communication-avoiding methods for multicore processors and multi-GPU machines~\cite{} {\bf MANQUE REF}.
+
+Compared to all these works and to all the other works on Krylov iterative
+method, the originality of our work is to build a second iteration over a Krylov
+iterative method and to minimize the residuals with a least-squares method after
+a given number of outer iteration.

+\section{Two-stage iteration with least-squares residuals minimization algorithm}
\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. The algorithm is implemented as an
-inner-outer iteration solver based on iterative Krylov methods. The main key
-points of our solver are given in Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}.
-
-In order to accelerate the convergence, the outer iteration periodically applies
-a least-square minimization on the residuals computed by the inner solver. The
-inner solver is a Krylov based solver which does not required to be changed.
-
-At each outer iteration, the sparse linear system $Ax=b$ is solved, only for $m$
-iterations, using an iterative method restarting with the previous solution. For
-example, the GMRES method~\cite{Saad86} or some of its variants can be used as a
-inner solver. The current solution of the Krylov method is saved inside a matrix
-$S$ composed of successive solutions computed by the inner iteration.
-
-Periodically, every $s$ 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
+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-squares 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 last obtained approximation. GMRES method~\cite{Saad86}, or any of its
+variants, can potentially be used as inner solver. The current approximation of
+the Krylov method is then stored inside a $n \times s$ matrix $S$, which is
+composed by the $s$ last solutions that have been computed during the inner
+iterations phase. In the remainder, the $i$-th column vector of $S$ will be
+denoted by $S_i$.
+
+At each $s$ iterations, another kind of minimization step is applied in order to
+compute a new solution $x$. For that, the previous residuals of $Ax=b$ are computed by
+the inner iterations with $(b-AS)$. The minimization of the residuals is obtained by

\label{sec:04}
+We can now claim that,
+\begin{proposition}
+\label{prop:saad}
+If $A$ is either a definite positive or a positive matrix and GMRES($m$) is used as solver, then the TSIRM algorithm is convergent.
+Furthermore, let $r_k$ be the
+$k$-th residue of TSIRM, then
+we have the following boundaries:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item when $A$ is positive:
+\begin{equation}
+||r_k|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{km}{2}} ||r_0|| ,
+\end{equation}
+where $M$ is the symmetric part of $A$, $\alpha = \lambda_{min}(M)^2$ and $\beta = \lambda_{max}(A^T A)$;
+\item when $A$ is positive definite:
+\begin{equation}
+\|r_k\| \leq \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{km/2} \|r_0\|.
+\end{equation}
+\end{itemize}
+%In the general case, where A is not positive definite, we have
+%$\|r_n\| \le \inf_{p \in P_n} \|p(A)\| \le \kappa_2(V) \inf_{p \in P_n} \max_{\lambda \in \sigma(A)} |p(\lambda)| \|r_0\|, .$
+\end{proposition}
+
+\begin{proof}
+Let us first recall that the residue is under control when considering the GMRES algorithm on a positive definite matrix, and it is bounded as follows:
+\begin{equation*}
+\|r_k\| \leq \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{k/2} \|r_0\| .
+\end{equation*}
+Additionally, when $A$ 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 $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are defined as in Proposition~\ref{prop:saad}, which proves
+the convergence of GMRES($m$) for all $m$ under such assumptions regarding $A$.
+These well-known results can be found, \emph{e.g.}, in~\cite{Saad86}.
+
+We will now prove by a mathematical induction that, for each $k \in \mathbb{N}^\ast$,
+$||r_k|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{mk}{2}} ||r_0||$ when $A$ is positive, and $\|r_k\| \leq \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{km/2} \|r_0\|$ when $A$ is positive definite.
+
+The base case is obvious, as for $k=1$, the TSIRM algorithm simply consists in applying GMRES($m$) once, leading to a new residual $r_1$ that follows the inductive hypothesis due, to the results recalled above.
+
+Suppose now that the claim holds for all $m=1, 2, \hdots, k-1$, that is, $\forall m \in \{1,2,\hdots, k-1\}$, $||r_m|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{km}{2}} ||r_0||$ in the positive case, and $\|r_k\| \leq \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{km/2} \|r_0\|$ in the definite positive one.
+We will show that the statement holds too for $r_k$. Two situations can occur:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item If $k \not\equiv 0 ~(\textrm{mod}\ m)$, then the TSIRM algorithm consists in executing GMRES once. In that case and by using the inductive hypothesis, we obtain either $||r_k|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{m}{2}} ||r_{k-1}||\leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{km}{2}} ||r_0||$ if $A$ is positive, or $\|r_k\| \leqslant \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{m/2} \|r_{k-1}\|$ $\leqslant$ $\left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{km/2} \|r_{0}\|$ in the positive definite case.
+\item Else, the TSIRM algorithm consists in two stages: a first GMRES($m$) execution leads to a temporary $x_k$ whose residue satisfies:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item $||r_k|| \leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{m}{2}} ||r_{k-1}||\leqslant \left(1-\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\right)^{\frac{km}{2}} ||r_0||$ in the positive case,
+\item $\|r_k\| \leqslant \left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{m/2} \|r_{k-1}\|$ $\leqslant$ $\left( 1-\frac{\lambda_{\mathrm{min}}^2(1/2(A^T + A))}{ \lambda_{\mathrm{max}}(A^T A)} \right)^{km/2} \|r_{0}\|$ in the positive definite one,

+As by default
the restart of GMRES is performed every 30 iterations, we have chosen to stop
-the GMRES every 30 iterations (line \ref{algo:solve} in
-Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}). $s$ is set to 8. CGLS is chosen to minimize the
-least-squares problem. Two conditions are used to stop CGLS, either the
-precision is under $1e-40$ or the number of iterations is greater to $20$. The
-external precision is set to $1e-10$ (line \ref{algo:conv} in
-Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}). Those experiments have been performed on a Intel(R)
+the GMRES every 30 iterations (\emph{i.e.} $max\_iter_{kryl}=30$). $s$ 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
+$\epsilon_{tsirm}=1e-10$. 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 the 2 stage algorithm, the same solver
-and the same preconditionner is used. This Table shows that the 2 stage
-algorithm can drastically reduce the number of iterations to reach the
+GRMES or FGMRES (Flexible GMRES)~\cite{Saad:1993} is used to solve the linear
+system. According to the matrices, different preconditioner is used. With
+TSIRM, the same solver and the same preconditionner are used. This Table shows
+that TSIRM 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 the following larger experiments are described on two large scale
+architectures: Curie and Juqeen. Both these architectures are supercomputer
+composed of 80,640 cores for Curie and 458,752 cores for Juqueen. Those machines
+are respectively hosted by GENCI in France and Jülich Supercomputing Centre in
+Germany. They belongs with other similar architectures of the PRACE initiative (
+Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe) which aims at proposing high
+performance supercomputing architecture to enhance research in Europe. The Curie
+architecture is composed of Intel E5-2680 processors at 2.7 GHz with 2Gb memory
+by core. The Juqueen architecture is composed of IBM PowerPC A2 at 1.6 GHz with
+1Gb memory per core. Both those architecture are equiped with a dedicated high

+In many situations, using preconditioners is essential in order to find the

+For parallel applications all the preconditioners based on matrix factorization
+are not available. In our experiments, we have tested different kinds of
+preconditioners, however as it is not the subject of this paper, we will not
+present results with many preconditioners. In practise, we have chosen to use a

\label{tab:03}

\end{table*}
+Table~\ref{tab:03} shows the execution times and the number of iterations of
+example ex15 of PETSc on the Juqueen architecture. Different numbers of cores
+are studied ranging from 2,048 up-to 16,383 with the two preconditioners {\it mg} and {\it sor}. For those experiments, the number of components (or unknowns of the
+problems) per core is fixed to 25,000, also called weak scaling. 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 Table~\ref{tab:03}, we can notice that TSIRM is always faster than FGMRES. The last
+column shows the ratio between FGMRES and the best version of TSIRM according to
+the minimization procedure: CGLS or LSQR. Even if we have computed the worst
+case between CGLS and LSQR, it is clear that TSIRM is always faster than
+FGMRES. For this example, the multigrid preconditioner is faster than SOR. The
+gain between TSIRM and FGMRES is more or less similar for the two
+preconditioners. Looking at the number of iterations to reach the convergence,
+it is obvious that TSIRM allows the reduction of the number of iterations. It
+should be noticed that for TSIRM, in those experiments, only the iterations of
+the Krylov solver are taken into account. Iterations of CGLS or LSQR were not
+recorded but they are time-consuming. In general each $max\_iter_{kryl}*s$ which
+corresponds to 30*12, there are $max\_iter_{ls}$ which corresponds to 15.

+
+In Figure~\ref{fig:01}, the number of iterations per second corresponding to
+Table~\ref{tab:03} is displayed. It can be noticed that the number of
+iterations per second of FMGRES is constant whereas it decreases with TSIRM with
+both preconditioners. This can be explained by the fact that when the number of
+cores increases the time for the least-squares minimization step also increases but, generally,
+when the number of cores increases, the number of iterations to reach the
+threshold also increases, and, in that case, TSIRM is more efficient to reduce
+the number of iterations. So, the overall benefit of using TSIRM is interesting.

-\begin{table*}
+In Table~\ref{tab:04}, some experiments with example ex54 on the Curie
+architecture are reported. For this application, we fixed $\alpha=0.6$. As it
+can be seen in that Table, the size of the problem has a strong influence on the
+number of iterations to reach the convergence. That is why we have preferred to
+change the threshold. If we set it to $1e-3$ as with the previous application,
+only one iteration is necessray to reach the convergence. So Table~\ref{tab:04}
+shows the results of differents executions with differents number of cores and
+differents thresholds. As with the previous example, we can observe that TSIRM
+is faster than FGMRES. The ratio greatly depends on the number of iterations for
+FMGRES to reach the threshold. The greater the number of iterations to reach the
+convergence is, the better the ratio between our algorithm and FMGRES is. This
+experiment is also a weak scaling with approximately $25,000$ components per
+core. It can also be observed that the difference between CGLS and LSQR is not
+significant. Both can be good but it seems not possible to know in advance which
+one will be the best.
+
+Table~\ref{tab:05} show a strong scaling experiment with the exemple ex54 on the
+Curie architecture. So in this case, the number of unknownws is fixed to
+$204,919,225$ and the number of cores ranges from $512$ to $8192$ with the power
+of two. The threshold is fixed to $5e-5$ and only the $mg$ preconditioner has
+been tested. Here again we can see that TSIRM is faster that FGMRES. Efficiecy
+of each algorithms is reported. It can be noticed that FGMRES is more efficient
+than TSIRM except with $8,192$ cores and that its efficiency is greater that one
+whereas the efficiency of TSIRM is lower than one. Nevertheless, the ratio of
+TSIRM with any version of the least-squares method is always faster. With
+$8,192$ cores when the number of iterations is far more important for FGMRES, we
+can see that it is only slightly more important for TSIRM.
+
+In Figure~\ref{fig:02} we report the number of iterations per second for
+experiments reported in Table~\ref{tab:05}. This Figure highlights that the
+number of iterations per seconds is more of less the same for FGMRES and TSIRM
+with a little advantage for FGMRES. It can be explained by the fact that, as we
+have previously explained, that the iterations of the least-sqaure steps are not
+taken into account with TSIRM.

+
+Concerning the experiments some other remarks are interesting.
+\begin{itemize}
+\item We can tested other examples of PETSc (ex29, ex45, ex49). For all these
+ examples, we also obtained similar gain between GMRES and TSIRM but those
+ examples are not scalable with many cores. In general, we had some problems
+ with more than $4,096$ cores.
+\item We have tested many iterative solvers available in PETSc. In fast, it is
+ possible to use most of them with TSIRM. From our point of view, the condition
+ to use a solver inside TSIRM is that the solver must have a restart
+ feature. More precisely, the solver must support to be stoped and restarted
+ without decrease its converge. That is why with GMRES we stop it when it is
+ naturraly restarted (i.e. with $m$ the restart parameter). The Conjugate
+ Gradient (CG) and all its variants do not have ``restarted'' version in PETSc,
+ so they are not efficient. They will converge with TSIRM but not quickly
+ because if we compare a normal CG with a CG for which we stop it each 16
+ iterations for example, the normal CG will be for more efficient. Some
+ restarted CG or CG variant versions exist and may be interested to study in
+ future works.

-- test the influence of all the parameters\\
-- adaptative number of outer iterations to minimize\\

+For future work, the authors' intention is to investigate other kinds of
