Parallel path strategy

LAND 125 Phase 2B (SE v.l) - this was the Interim Capability originally scoped nnder the Parallel Path strategy. This was intended to provide a range of discrete (non-integrated) equipment solutions with little if arty technical integration planned, as human factors issues were expected to be dealt with by the soldier. The SE v. 1 addressed dismoimted infantry capability shortfalls through the provision of equipment previously provided to Special Forces and proven effective (Hill, 2005). 

To exploit the sparsity of unstructured submatrices, depending on the sparsity degree of the two matrices Ai 2, two alternative solving strategies are defined, which are similar in their evaluation of the product z = Aj jbi, but proceed along two parallel paths ...
