Abstract

This paper describes a library for model reduction of largescale, dense linear time-invariant systems on parallel distributed-memory computers. Our library is enhanced with a mail service which serves as a demonstrator of the capabilities of the library. Remote requests submitted via e-mail are executed on a cluster composed of Intel Pentium-II nodes connected via a Myrinet switch. Experimental results show the numerical and parallel performances of our model reduction routines.

Supported by the Fundació Caixa-Castelló/Bancaixa PI-1B2001-14 and CICYT TIC2002-04400-C03-01.
