A UNIFIED APPROACH FOR SOL VING LINE AR EQUATIONSTWO-DIMENSIONAL ITERATIVE METHOD

In this paper, a unified approach of iterative methods, such as Jacobi method, Gauss-Seidel method, SOR method, etc., for solving linear equations is discussed and studied. For the reason stated in this paper, this approach is called 2-dimensional iterative method. The convergence and the rate of convergence of iteration process are improved by using this new approach. The theoretical analysis and the computing results demonstrate that this approach has many advantages over the generally used iterative methods. it is useful in solving the large scale electric circuits, such as VLSI.
