Here parallel versions are developed of the standard algorithms for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of an unsymmetric matrix. Various parallelized versions of the central QR algorithm have been tried, but they all show execution times (on an INTEL iPSC/2 hypercube) that are essentially independent of the number of processors used, i.e. there is no marked advantage of parallelism.
