-The sparse linear systems are used to model many scientific and industrial problems, such as the environmental simulations or
-the industrial processing of the complex or non-Newtonian fluids. Moreover, the resolution of these problems often involves the
-solving of such linear systems which is considered as the most expensive process in terms of time execution and memory space.
-Therefore, solving sparse linear systems must be as efficient as possible in order to deal with problems of ever increasing size.
-
-There are, in the jargon of numerical analysis, different methods of solving sparse linear systems that we can classify in two
-classes: the direct and iterative methods. However, the iterative methods are often more suitable than their counterpart, direct
-methods, for solving large sparse linear systems. Indeed, they are less memory consuming and easier to parallelize on parallel
-computers than direct methods. Different computing platforms, sequential and parallel computers, are used for solving sparse
-linear systems with iterative solutions. Nowadays, graphics processing units (GPUs) have become attractive for solving these
-linear systems, due to their computing power and their ability to compute faster than traditional CPUs.
-
-In Section~\ref{sec:02}, we describe the general principle of two well-known iterative methods: the conjugate gradient method and
-the generalized minimal residual method. In Section~\ref{sec:03}, we give the main key points of the parallel implementation of both
-methods on a cluster of GPUs. Then, in Section~\ref{sec:04}, we present the experimental results obtained on a CPU cluster and on
-a GPU cluster, for solving sparse linear systems associated to matrices of different structures. Finally, in Section~\ref{sec:05},
-we apply the hypergraph partitioning technique to reduce the total communication volume between the computing nodes and, thus, to
-improve the execution times of the parallel algorithms of both iterative methods.

-where $x_0$ is the initial guess, $r_k=b-Ax_k$ is the residual of the computed solution $x_k$ and $\mathcal{K}_k$ the Krylov
-sub-space of order $k$: \[\mathcal{K}_k(A,r_0) \equiv\text{span}\{r_0, Ar_0, A^2r_0,\ldots, A^{k-1}r_0\}.\]

 In fact, CG is based on the construction of a sequence $\{p_k\}_{k\in\mathbb{N}}$ of direction vectors in $\mathcal{K}_k$

 Consequently, the residuals $r_k$ are computed in the same way:

 r_k = r_{k-1} - \alpha_k A p_k.

-After the partitioning operation, all the data involved from this operation must be transferred from the CPU memories to the GPU
-memories, in order to be processed by GPUs. We use two functions of the CUBLAS library (CUDA Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines),
-developed by Nvidia~\cite{ref6}: \verb+cublasAlloc()+ for the memory allocations on GPUs and \verb+cublasSetVector()+ for the
-memory copies from the CPUs to the GPUs.
-
-An efficient implementation of CG and GMRES solvers on a GPU cluster requires to determine all parts of their codes that can be
-executed in parallel and, thus, take advantage of the GPU acceleration. As many Krylov sub-space methods, the CG and GMRES methods
-are mainly based on arithmetic operations dealing with vectors or matrices: sparse matrix-vector multiplications, scalar-vector
-multiplications, dot products, Euclidean norms, AXPY operations ($y\leftarrow ax+y$ where $x$ and $y$ are vectors and $a$ is a
-scalar) and so on. These vector operations are often easy to parallelize and they are more efficient on parallel computers when
-they work on large vectors. Therefore, all the vector operations used in CG and GMRES solvers must be executed by the GPUs as kernels.
-
-We use the kernels of the CUBLAS library to compute some vector operations of CG and GMRES solvers. The following kernels of CUBLAS
-(dealing with double floating point) are used: \verb+cublasDdot()+ for the dot products, \verb+cublasDnrm2()+ for the Euclidean
-norms and \verb+cublasDaxpy()+ for the AXPY operations. For the rest of the data-parallel operations, we code their kernels in CUDA.
-In the CG solver, we develop a kernel for the XPAY operation ($y\leftarrow x+ay$) used at line~$12$ in Algorithm~\ref{alg:01}. In the
-GMRES solver, we program a kernel for the scalar-vector multiplication (lines~$7$ and~$15$ in Algorithm~\ref{alg:02}), a kernel for
-solving the least-squares problem and a kernel for the elements updates of the solution vector $x$.
-
-The least-squares problem in the GMRES method is solved by performing a QR factorization on the Hessenberg matrix $\bar{H}_m$ with
-plane rotations and, then, solving the triangular system by backward substitutions to compute $y$. Consequently, solving the least-squares
-problem on the GPU is not interesting. Indeed, the triangular solves are not easy to parallelize and inefficient on GPUs. However,
-the least-squares problem to solve in the GMRES method with restarts has, generally, a very small size $m$. Therefore, we develop
-an inexpensive kernel which must be executed in sequential by a single CUDA thread. 
-
-The most important operation in CG and GMRES methods is the sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV), because it is often an
-expensive operation in terms of execution time and memory space. Moreover, it requires to take care of the storage format of the
-sparse matrix in the memory. Indeed, the naive storage, row-by-row or column-by-column, of a sparse matrix can cause a significant
-waste of memory space and execution time. In addition, the sparsity nature of the matrix often leads to irregular memory accesses
-to read the matrix nonzero values. So, the computation of the SpMV multiplication on GPUs can involve non coalesced accesses to
-the global memory, which slows down even more its performances. One of the most efficient compressed storage formats of sparse
-matrices on GPUs is HYB format~\cite{ref7}. It is a combination of ELLpack (ELL) and Coordinate (COO) formats. Indeed, it stores
-a typical number of nonzero values per row in ELL format and remaining entries of exceptional rows in COO format. It combines
-the efficiency of ELL due to the regularity of its memory accesses and the flexibility of COO which is insensitive to the matrix
-structure. Consequently, we use the HYB kernel~\cite{ref8} developed by Nvidia to implement the SpMV multiplication of CG and
-GMRES methods on GPUs. Moreover, to avoid the non coalesced accesses to the high-latency global memory, we fill the elements of
-the iterate vector $x$ in the cached texture memory.

-$Ax=b$ that need the $j^{th}$ unknown value of solution vector $x$. Therefore, pins of hyperedge $e_j$, $pins[e_j]$, are the set of matrix rows sharing

-In the experimental tests, we have shown that using a GPU cluster is efficient for solving linear systems associated to very large
-sparse matrices. The experimental results, obtained in the present chapter, showed that a cluster of $12$ GPUs is about $7$
-times faster than a cluster of $24$ CPU cores for solving large sparse linear systems of $25$ million unknown values. This is due
-to the GPU ability to compute the data-parallel operations faster than the CPUs. However, we have shown that solving linear systems
-associated to matrices having large bandwidths uses many communications to synchronize the computations of GPUs, which slow down 
-even more the resolution. Moreover, there are two kinds of communications: between a CPU and its GPU and between CPUs of the computing
-nodes, such that the first ones are the slowest communications on a GPU cluster. So, we have proposed to use the hypergraph partitioning
-instead of the row-by-row partitioning. This allows to minimize the data dependencies between the GPU computing nodes and thus to
