Abstract
Three divide-and-conquer algorithms for solving linear recurrence systems are introduced. Two of them are algorithms for the general case whereas the third is designed to take full advantage of the constant coefficient case. All three algorithms were implemented on an 8-processor Cray Y-MP and the results of experiments are presented.
