This +algorithm is based on a two-stage method with a minimization using the +GMRES iterative method as an inner solver. It is executed in parallel +by each cluster of processors. The matrices and vectors with the +subscript $l$ represent the local data for the cluster $l$, where +$l\in\{1,\ldots,L\}$. The two-stage solver uses two different parallel +iterative algorithms: the GMRES method to solve each splitting on a +cluster of processors, and the CGNR method executed in parallel by all +clusters to minimize the function error over the Krylov subspace +spanned by $S$. The algorithm requires two global synchronizations +between the $L$ clusters. The first one is performed at line~$12$ in +Algorithm~\ref{algo:01} to exchange the local values of the vector +solution $x$ (i.e. the minimizer $\tilde{x}$) required to restart the +multisplitting solver. The second one is needed to construct the +matrix $R$ of the Krylov subspace. We choose to perform this latter +synchronization $s$ times in every outer iteration $k$ (line~$7$ in +Algorithm~\ref{algo:01}). This is a straightforward way to compute the +matrix-matrix multiplication $R=AS$. We implement all +synchronizations by using the MPI collective communication +subroutines.
