Errata: Parallel Solution of Dense Linear Systems on the k-Ary n-Cube Networks

In this paper a parallel algorithm for solving systems of linear equation on the kary n-cube is presented and evaluated for the first time. The proposed algorithm is of O(N/k) computation complexity and uses O(Nn) communication time to factorize a matrix of order N on the k-ary n-cube. This is better than the best known results for the hypercube, O(N log k), and the mesh, O(N √ kn), each with approximately k nodes. The proposed parallel algorithm takes advantage of the extra connectivity in the k-ary n-cube in order to reduce the communication time involved in tasks such as pivoting, row/column interchanges, and pivot row and multipliers column broadcasts.
