Abstract
A system and method of using a computer processor (34) to generate a solution to a linear system of equations is provided. The computer processor (34) executes a Jacobi iterative technique to produce outputs representing the solution. Multiplication operations required by the iterative technique are performed using logarithmic arithmetic. With logarithmic arithmetic, a multiplication operation is accomplished using addition. For a given n.times.n matrix A, the computer processor (34) can compute an inverse matrix A.sup.-1 by repeatedly executing the iterative technique to solve n linear systems.
