We present an implementation of such an algorithm on GPU: This implementation relies on a modified storage format of the matrices associated with the problem on different grid levels and on a related specialised representation of the grid transfer operators. Moreover, different aggregation techniques are examined, aiming at the minimisation of the computational effort for the setup that is not readily accelerated on GPU. The speed-up GPU vs. CPU of our implementation of the Krylov-accelerated AMG is shown to lie in the range of reported speed-up of conventional algebraic multigrid algorithms.\bibliographystyle{plain}\begin{thebibliography}{10}\bibitem{notay-vassilevski}{\sc O.
