Abstract
In this paper we study efficient parallel implementation for hybrid iterative methods BICGSTAB and BICGSTAB $(\ell)$ with ${Well}=2$ on the CRAY C90 and the efficiency of their parallel performance is evaluated. numerical experiments suggest that on the CRAY C90 a parallel inner product algorithm called PDOTB be used for the par-allelization of hybrid iterative methods containing sensitive values of inner products. Lastly it is shown that the number of iterations in which parallel hybrid iterative methods satisfy a certain convergence criterion depends on the number of processors to be used.
