%In this paper we present a parallel implementation of Ehrlich-Aberth

In order to implement the Ehrlich-Aberth method in CUDA, it is
possible to use the Jacobi scheme or the Gauss Seidel one. With the
Jacobi iteration, at iteration $k+1$ we need all the previous values
-$z^{(k)}_{i}$ to compute the new values $z^{(k+1)}_{i}$, that is :
+$z^{k}_{i}$ to compute the new values $z^{k+1}_{i}$, that is :

Using Eq.~\ref{eq:Aberth-H-GS} to update the vector solution
\textit{Z}, we expect the Gauss-Seidel iteration to converge more
quickly because, just as any Jacobi algorithm (for solving linear systems of equations), it uses the most fresh computed roots $z^{k+1}_{i}$.
%In CUDA programming, all the instructions of the \verb=for= loop are executed by the GPU as a kernel. A kernel is a function written in CUDA and defined by the \verb=__global__= qualifier added before a usual \verb=C= function, which instructs the compiler to generate appropriate code to pass it to the CUDA runtime in order to be executed on the GPU.
