We study the parallelization of linearly--implicit extrapolation methods for the solution of large scale systems of differential algebraic equations arising in a method of lines (MOL ) treatment of partial differential equations. In our approach we combine a slightly overlapping domain decomposi tion together with a polynomial block Neumann preconditioner. Through the explicit computation of the matrix products of the pre conditioner and the system matrix a significant gain in overall efficiency is achieved for medium--sized problems. The parallel algorithm exhibits a good scalability up to 32 proces sors on a Cray T3E. Preliminary results for computations on a workstation cluster are reported.
