A shared memory-based parallel out-of-core LU solver for matrix equations with application in EM problems

In this short paper, a shared memory-based parallel out-of-core LU solver for matrix equations is presented and applied to solve MoM matrix equations of EM scattering on an ordinary multi-core computer. The pseudo-code of the solver is given and implemented in C++ on Microsoft's VS2005 platform by the help of OpenMP. Three numerical examples in EM problems are provided to test the capability of the solver.
