Notes:
In electromagnetics, a numerical technique that finds immense application is the method of moments. This method reduces the boundary value problem containing integro-differential equations into the form AX = Y, where A is a full complex matrix, that is known and X is the unknown to be solved for the given excitation Y. In this paper, the matrix equation has been solved on various computers such as the VAX 3500, VAX 8530, Multimax 320, Alliant FX/80 and IBM 3090-600E. Two of the established methods, viz. gaussian elimination and the conjugate gradient method have been used to solve the above matrix equations. A detailed timing analysis has been done to bring out the features of various computer architectures.
