In fact,
For LS problems, we usually use Givens rotations or Householder
reflection rather than Gram-Schmidt method for VLSI implementation in
QRD. As far as I know, the flop counts of those are almost the same.
And the rotations and reflection in the usual method needs more large
hardware as CORDIC rather than the simple multiplications and
accumulation in Gram-Schmidt method. Of course, the normalization in
Gram-Schmidt method has problems. But this can be solved with
workarounds such as Look-up-tables.

And mathematical stability of these has no problem, using modified
version of this or reorthogonalization technique.

In spite of these, every hardware guys ever likes Systolic arrays
based on rotations and reflections.

Why???????Why???????Why???????
