Biconjugate gradient stabilized method could be summarized as follows

For the given system of equation
Ax = b ;
b = source vector
x = solution variable for which we seek the solution
A = coefficient matrix

M = the precondioning matrix constructued by matrix A

Allocate temperary vectors p, phat, s, shat, t, v, rtilde

Allocate temerary reals rho_1, rho_2 , alpha, beta, omega

r := b - A $\cdot$ x

rtilde = r

for i := 1 step 1 until max_itr do

rho_1 = rtilde $\cdot$ r

if i = 1 then p := r else

beta = (rho_1/rho_2) * (alpha/omega)

p = r + beta * (p - omega * v)

end if

solve (M $\cdot$ phat = p )

v = A $\cdot$ phat

alpha = rho_1 / (rtilde $\cdot$ v)

s = r - alpha * v

solve (M $\cdot$ shat = s )

t = A * shat;

omega = (t $\cdot$ s) / (t $\cdot$ t)

x = x + alpha * phat + omega * shat

r = s - omega * t

rho_2 = rho_1

end (i-loop)

deallocate all temp memory

return TRUE
