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.
+inner solver is based on a Krylov method which does not require 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
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
-$1e-10$ (i.e. ). 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.
