What is ICCG Method?
- ICCG is an iterative solution method based on CG (Conjugate Gradient) method. In ICCG, the calculation speed of CG method is enhanced with pre-processing technology (Incomplete Cholesky Factorization). Compared with CG method that has no pre-processing, ICCG method is faster and more stable.
- ICCG is an iterative method with many actual performance results in diverse analysis fields such as structural, electromagnetic and computational fluid dynamic analyses.
P-ICCG Summary Specifications
Items Descriptions Notes
Target Analysis Fields Structural Analyses and Electromagnetic, etc.  
Target Coefficient Matrix Sparse matrices that are generated from discretization methods such as finite element, finite volume and differential methods.  
Problems with Zero Diagonal Elements Capable of calculating. Not all problems with zero diagonal elements can be calculated.
Types of Unknowns Real (double) and Complex Numbers  
Symmetry of Problems Symmetric problems only. Unable to calculate asymmetric problems.  
Parallelization Method Supports shared memory type (SMP)  
Maximum Number of CPU's Technically unlimited; however, 1 to 8 CPU's are recommended. Users must purchase the same number of licenses as the number of CPU's used.
Input Data Coefficient matrix, right-hand side vector, target convergence, maximum number of iteration, etc. The number of CPU's to be used in calculation may be assigned.
Output Data Solution vector, achieved relative residual, actual number of iteration, etc.  
Indication of Error Messages Warnings and error messages returned as return value (calculation information, system information, etc).  
Method of Provision DLL format for Windows; Static library format for Linux and UNIX. Source code will not be disclosed.
Attached Materials Product manual (with explanations about data format, parameters, integration procedures, etc.), sample data, sample program for integrating SMS-AMG (C and FORTRAN).
