Abstract :
Fast matrix multiplication (FMM) algorithms to multiply two n × n matrices reduce the asymptotic operation count from O(n3) of the traditional algorithm to O(n2.38), thus on distributed memory computers, the association of FMM algorithms and the parallel matrix multiplication algorithms always gives remarkable results. Within this association, the application of FMM algorithms at inter-processor level requires us to solve more difficult problems in designing but it forms the most effective algorithms. In this paper, a general model of these algorithms is presented and we also introduce a scalable method to implement this model on distributed memory computers.
