Efficient matrix partitioning for optical computing

Because optical computers will be designed to operate on matrices of a fixed size, we must ask how to use them on larger matrices. The matrix partitioning method shown here is simple (no bookkeeping), algorithm-independent, and efficient (making maximum use of all calculation units available).
