Abstract


The paper considers the use of a multilevel parallel computing model for solving linear algebra problems (systems of linear algebraic equations and an algebraic eigenvalue problem) on hybrid architecture computers and computers with multi-core processors Intel Xeon Phi x200 series. The basic principles of algorithm-software development of such computers are formulated. Examples of algorithms that use multilevel parallelism are given.
