Alejandro Claudio Esquivel Gonzalez commented on HAMA-524:
----------------------------------------------------------
So, you say that the task has been already assigned and there will not be
change on that? or that if you find a good idea to break this task into pieces
you could accept more students?
There are different formats to process the Sparse Matrix-vector multiplication
if the Sparse matrix is in diagonal, tridiagonal form, band matrix, etc. I
think you could identify the best format for each matrix and split the
conversion and operation of different formats into different tasks.
Also, there are more matrix operations that need different storage structures
to be processed efficiently, for example editing a single value of the matrix
works better if it's in Yale format.
Thanks.
