In this paper we propose a batched GPU-kernel for the efficient generation of ISAI matrices. Utilizing only thread-local memory allows for computing the ISAI matrix with very small memory footprint. We demonstrate that this strategy is faster than the existing strategy for generating ISAI matrices, and use a large number of test matrices to assess the algorithm{\textquoteright}s efficiency in an iterative solver setting.}, isbn = {978-1-5090-5222-6}, doi = {10.1109/ScalA.2016.11}, author = {Hartwig Anzt and Edmond Chow and Thomas Huckle and Jack Dongarra} }
