However, in fields such as structural engineering, dynamic systems, and cryptography, computing the inverse of a matrix is inevitable. In this poster, we present an accelerated procedure for computing the inverse of diagonally dominant tridiagonal matrices on the GPU. The algorithm is based on the recursive application of the Sherman-Morrison formula for tridiagonal matrices. The preliminary experimental results on Nvidia Tesla K20c GPUs show that our GPU implementation of the inversion procedure outperforms the conventional CPU-based implementations with a speedup of up to 24x.
