Abstract
The problem of solving linear systems comprising of a banded structured
occurs frequently in the numerical solution of partial and coupled ordinary
-:ferential equations. In this report, a new algorithm is presented in which
itioning techniques are successively applied in a recursive manner in order
facilitate the solution of diagonally dominant or positive definite systems.
The method is developed specifically to enable it to be run on a dual miniuter
system which permits parallel processing.
