Current parallel processing approaches in finite element analysis can be roughly classified into two categories: In the domain method, an analysis region is divided into subdomains and one CPU assigned to each subdomain. Alternatively, one may calculate in parallel the matrix and vector products which arise in the process of solving the set of simultaneous equations. In this paper, we present a hybrid of the above two methods. Iteration to bring values on the subdomain boundaries coincide is not necessary, but the idea of domain division is used
