Abstract
The Smith Normal Form of a matrix is a diagonal representation which c ontains the invariant factors of the matrix in its diagonal. In this p aper, a new algorithm, which exploits parallelism by considering data dependencies, is proposed. In case of sparse matrices a high degree of parallelism can be reached.
