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 least-squares minimization step is applied on the matrix composed by the saved +residuals, in order to compute a better solution and to make new iterations if +required.

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.

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 +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 of $Ax=b$ are computed by +the inner iterations 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-squares method such as +CGLS ~\cite{Hestenes52} or LSQR~\cite{Paige82} is used.

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 TSIRM algorithm (\emph{i.e.} +$\epsilon_{tsirm}$). 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.

So, the overall benefit of using TSIRM is interesting. + + + + + + +\begin{table*}[htbp] +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|} +\hline + + nb. cores & threshold & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{GMRES} & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{TSIRM CGLS} & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{TSIRM LSQR} & best gain \\ +\cline{3-8} + & & Time & \# Iter. & Time & \# Iter. & Time & \# Iter. & \\\hline \hline + 2,048 & 8e-5 & 108.88 & 16,560 & 23.06 & 3,630 & 22.79 & 3,630 & 4.77 \\ + 2,048 & 6e-5 & 194.01 & 30,270 & 35.50 & 5,430 & 27.74 & 4,350 & 6.99 \\ + 4,096 & 7e-5 & 160.59 & 22,530 & 35.15 & 5,130 & 29.21 & 4,350 & 5.49 \\ + 4,096 & 6e-5 & 249.27 & 35,520 & 52.13 & 7,950 & 39.24 & 5,790 & 6.35 \\ + 8,192 & 6e-5 & 149.54 & 17,280 & 28.68 & 3,810 & 29.05 & 3,990 & 5.21 \\ + 8,192 & 5e-5 & 785.04 & 109,590 & 76.07 & 10,470 & 69.42 & 9,030 & 11.30 \\ + 16,384 & 4e-5 & 718.61 & 86,400 & 98.98 & 10,830 & 131.86 & 14,790 & 7.26 \\ +\hline + +\end{tabular} +\caption{Comparison of FGMRES and 2 stage FGMRES algorithms for ex54 of Petsc (both with the MG preconditioner) with 25000 components per core on Curie (restart=30, s=12), time is expressed in seconds.} +\label{tab:04} +\end{center} +\end{table*} + + +In Table~\ref{tab:04}, some experiments with example ex54 on the Curie architecture are reported. + + +\begin{table*}[htbp] +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|r|} +\hline + + nb. cores & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{GMRES} & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{TSIRM CGLS} & \multicolumn{2}{c|}{TSIRM LSQR} & best gain & \multicolumn{3}{c|}{efficiency} \\ +\cline{2-7} \cline{9-11} + & Time & \# Iter. & Time & \# Iter. & Time & \# Iter. & & GMRES & TS CGLS & TS LSQR\\\hline \hline + 512 & 3,969.69 & 33,120 & 709.57 & 5,790 & 622.76 & 5,070 & 6.37 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\ + 1024 & 1,530.06 & 25,860 & 290.95 & 4,830 & 307.71 & 5,070 & 5.25 & 1.30 & 1.21 & 1.01 \\ + 2048 & 919.62 & 31,470 & 237.52 & 8,040 & 194.22 & 6,510 & 4.73 & 1.08 & .75 & .80\\ + 4096 & 405.60 & 28,380 & 111.67 & 7,590 & 91.72 & 6,510 & 4.42 & 1.22 & .79 & .84 \\ + 8192 & 785.04 & 109,590 & 76.07 & 10,470 & 69.42 & 9,030 & 11.30 & .32 & .58 & .56 \\ + +\hline + +\end{tabular} +\caption{Comparison of FGMRES and 2 stage FGMRES algorithms for ex54 of Petsc (both with the MG preconditioner) with 204,919,225 components on Curie with different number of cores (restart=30, s=12, threshol 5e-5), time is expressed in seconds.} +\label{tab:05} +\end{center} +\end{table*} + +\begin{figure}[htbp] +\centering + \includegraphics[width=0.45\textwidth]{nb_iter_sec_ex54_curie} +\caption{Number of iterations per second with ex54 and the same parameters than in Table~\ref{tab:05} (strong scaling)} +\label{fig:02} +\end{figure} + %%%********************************************************* %%%********************************************************* @@ -591,11 +982,19 @@ We propose a two-stage algorithm to solve large sparse linear systems of the for %%%********************************************************* %%%********************************************************* \section{Conclusion} +\label{sec:06} %The conclusion goes here. this is more of the conclusion %%%********************************************************* %%%********************************************************* +future plan : \\ +- study other kinds of matrices, problems, inner solvers\\ +- test the influence of all the parameters\\ +- adaptative number of outer iterations to minimize\\ +- other methods to minimize the residuals?\\ +- implement our solver inside PETSc + % conference papers do not normally have an appendix @@ -605,10 +1004,10 @@ We propose a two-stage algorithm to solve large sparse linear systems of the for %%%********************************************************* %%%********************************************************* \section*{Acknowledgment} -%The authors would like to thank... -%more thanks here -%%%********************************************************* -%%%********************************************************* +This paper is partially funded by the Labex ACTION program (contract +ANR-11-LABX-01-01).
