Abstract

We describe an asynchronous parallel variant of the randomized Kaczmarz (RK) algorithm for solving the linear system Ax=bAx=b. The analysis shows linear convergence and indicates that nearly linear speedup can be expected if the number of processors is bounded by a multiple of the number of rows in AA.
