SPIKE algorithm the spikes in all and into where , , and are of dimensions formula_15. Partition similarly all and into Notice that the system produced by the preprocessing stage can be reduced to a block pentadiagonal system of much smaller size (recall that formula_10 is much less than formula_2) which we call the "reduced system" and denote by . Once all and are found, all can be recovered with perfect parallelism via Despite being logically divided into two stages, computationally, the SPIKE algorithm comprises three stages: Each of these stages can be accomplished in several ways, allowing a multitude of variants.
