In this paper, the parallel difference schemes for parabolic equation are studied. The general alternating difference schemes with intrinsic parallelism for two-dimensional fourth-order diffusion equation are presented and proved to be unconditionally stable by the energy method. Two kinds of alternating band explicit (ABE1, ABE2) schemes, alternating band explicit-implicit (ABE-I) scheme and alternating band Crank-Nicolson (ABC-N) scheme are the special cases of the general schemes constructed here. Numerical experiments are performed to examine the accuracy and unconditional stability.
