Summary:A VLSI-suited processor array is presented that performs a
Jacobi-like parallel algorithm for computing the real Schur
decomposition of real nonsymmetric (n×n) matrices. The array
consists of n2/4 processor cells which only perform exchange
operations and elementary (2×2) plane rotations. The underlying
algorithm iterates on dense matrices, i.e., the matrices need not to be
reduced to some canonical form in advance. The iteration algorithm is
derived by a problem adapted discretization process of an equivalent
dynamical system. The dynamical system belongs to the class of
isospectral matrix flow equations, i.e. a matrix valued differential
equation, whose time evolution converges for t→∞ to upper
quasi triangular form. The integration scheme is performed by computing
some highly regular orthogonal matrix-matrix multiplications
