Abstract: In this paper we introduce a model for representing and improving the locality of sparse matrices for irregular problems. We focus our attention on the behavior of iterative methods for the solution of sparse linear systems with irregular patterns. In particular the product of a sparse matrix by a dense vector (SpM \ThetaV ) is closely examined, as this is one of the basic kernels in such codes. As a representative level of the memory hierarchy, we consider the cache memory. In our model,... (Update)
