Abstract

Optical information processing architectures for performing matrix-matrix multiplication may also be used for performing other matrix operations as well. In this paper we will illustrate this concept by way of two examples; solution of simultaneous algebraic equations using the Gauss elimination algorithm and QR factorization using the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization algorithm.
