+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 save 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.

-\section{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
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 is implemented as an
-iterative Krylov method which minimizes some error functions over a Krylov
-subspace~\cite{saad96}. At each iteration, the sparse linear system $Ax=b$ is
-solved iteratively with an iterative method, for example GMRES
-method~\cite{saad86} or some of its variants, and the Krylov subspace that we
-used is spanned by a basis $S$ composed of successive solutions issued from the
-inner iteration
-\begin{equation}
- S = \{x^1, x^2, \ldots, x^s\} \text{,~} s\leq n.
-\end{equation}
-The advantage of such a Krylov subspace is that we neither need an orthogonal
-basis nor any synchronization between processors to generate this basis. The
-algorithm is periodically restarted every $s$ iterations with a new initial
-guess $x=S\alpha$ which minimizes the residual norm $\|b-Ax\|_2$ over the Krylov
-subspace spanned by vectors of $S$, where $\alpha$ is a solution of the normal
-equations
-\begin{equation}
- R^TR\alpha = R^Tb,
-\end{equation}
-which is associated with the least-squares problem
+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
\begin{equation}
\underset{\alpha\in\mathbb{R}^{s}}{min}\|b-R\alpha\|_2
\label{eq:01}
\end{equation}
-such that $R=AS$ is a dense rectangular matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{n\times s}$,
-$s\ll n$, and $R^T$ denotes the transpose of matrix $R$. We use an iterative
-method to solve the least-squares problem~(\ref{eq:01}) such as CGLS
-~\cite{hestenes52} or LSQR~\cite{paige82} which are more appropriate than a
-direct method in the parallel context.
+with $R=AS$. Then the new solution $x$ is computed with $x=S\alpha$.
+
+
+In practice, $R$ is a dense rectangular matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{n\times s}$,
+$s\ll n$. In order to minimize~(\ref{eq:01}), a least-square method such as
+CGLS ~\cite{Hestenes52} or LSQR~\cite{Paige82} is used. Those methods are more
+appropriate than a direct method in a parallel context.

-Operation $S_{k~ mod~ s}=x^k$ consists in copying the residual $x_k$ 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.
+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 (i.e.
+$\epsilon$). 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.
+
+To summarize, the important parameters of TSARM are:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item $\epsilon_{kryl}$ the threshold to stop the method of the krylov 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 to stop the least-square method
+\end{itemize}

+\section{Parallelization}
+\label{sec:05}
+
+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.
+
+\begin{algorithm}[t]
+\caption{CGLS}
+\begin{algorithmic}[1]
+ \Input $A$ (matrix), $b$ (right-hand side)
+ \Output $x$ (solution vector)\vspace{0.2cm}
+ \State $r=b-Ax$
+ \State $p=A'r$
+ \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.

+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 (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)
