-clusters  to minimize  the  function error  over  the Krylov  subspace
-spanned by  $S$.  The  algorithm requires two  global synchronizations

Matrices and vectors with the subscript $l$ represent the local data for cluster  $l$, where $l\in\{1,\ldots,L\}$. The two-stage solver uses two different parallel iterative algorithms: GMRES method to solve each splitting~(\ref{sec03:eq03}) on a cluster of processors, and CGNR method executed in parallel by all clusters to minimize the function error~(\ref{sec03:eq07}) over the Krylov subspace spanned by $S$. The algorithm requires two global synchronizations between $L$ clusters. The first one is performed at line~$12$ in Algorithm~\ref{algo:01} to exchange local values of vector solution $x$ (i.e. the minimizer $\tilde{x}$) required to restart the multisplitting solver.

We chose 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 sparse matrix-dense matrix multiplication $R=AS$. We implemented all synchronizations by using message passing collective communications of MPI library.
