+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.

+In order to see the influence of our algorithm with only one processor, we first
+show  a comparison  with the  standard version  of GMRES  and our  algorithm. In
+table~\ref{tab:01},  we  show  the  matrices  we  have used  and  some  of  them
+characteristics. For all  the matrices, the name, the field,  the number of rows
+and the number of nonzero elements is given.

+
+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)
+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
+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.
