Abstract
A general-purpose parallel iterative solver for large, sparse systems of linear equations is presented. This solver is used in two applications, a piezoelectric crystal vibration problem and a superconductor model, which could be solved only on the largest available massively parallel machine. Results obtained on the Intel DELTA show computational rates of up to 3.25 Gflops for these applications
