Abstract
In this paper we describe a parallel version of the Hestenes algorithm for computing the singular value decomposition. We also describe a co rresponding implementation on a transputer network. The implementation has been used to accelerate some programs for financial ratio analysi s. Empirical results regarding the efficiency of our implementation ar e also presented.
