Abstract. The ScaLAPACK library contains a pair of routines for solving banded linear systems which are strictly diagonally dominant by rows. Mathematically, the algorithm is complete block cyclic reduction corresponding to a particular block partitioning of the system. In this paper we extend Heller's analysis of incomplete cyclic reduction for block tridiagonal systems to the ScaLAPACK case.
