Convergence of Asynchronous Jacobi-Newton-Iterations

Asynchronous iterations often converge under different conditions than their syn- chronous counterparts. In this paper we will study the global convergence of Jacobi- Newton-like methods for nonlinear equationsF x = 0. It is a known fact, that the synchronous algorithm converges monotonically, ifF i...

Description
Summary:Asynchronous iterations often converge under different conditions than their syn- chronous counterparts. In this paper we will study the global convergence of Jacobi- Newton-like methods for nonlinear equationsF x = 0. It is a known fact, that the synchronous algorithm converges monotonically, ifF is a convex M-function and the starting valuesx0 andy0 meet the conditionF x04 04F y0 . In the paper it will be shown, which modifications are necessary to guarantee a similar convergence behavior for an asynchronous computation.
