The presented algorithms are designed and implemented in the framework of the recently developed HPC library SCASY and are based on explicit blocking, 2-dimensional block cyclic data distribution and a wavefront-like traversal of the right hand side matrices. High performance is obtained by rich usage of level 3 BLAS operations. It is also demonstrated how several important key concepts of SCASY regarding communications and the treatment of quasi-triangular coefficient matrices are generalized to the periodic case. Some experimental results from a distributed memory Linux cluster demonstrate are also presented. rv:
