Similarly, optimized Schwarz waveform relaxation (OSWR) algorithms have been explored to address the computational challenges of solving large scale systems that arise from discretizing partial differential equations (PDEs) [12] . Our primary goal is to develop and refine parallel algorithms that combine the strengths of the parareal-intime and OSWR methods, working effectively across both spatial and temporal domains for nonlinear PDEs. This effort focuses on solving the complexities of nonlinear coupled reaction-diffusion systems, such as the Rogers-McCulloch (RM) model [30] . We denote a bounded connected domain by Ω ⊂ Rd , here d = 1 or 2, with Lipschitz continuous boundary ∂Ω . We represent the space-time domain and its lateral boundary are by Q = Ω× (0, T] and Σ = ∂Ω× (0, T], respectively. The RM model, constituting the focal point of our study, is governed by coupled reaction-diffusion equations given below.  \n ~~u~~t = γ∆u − c1 u (a − u)(1 − u) − c2 uv, (x, t) ∈ Q,  \n vtuν  b0u, − bc3 v, ((xx,, tt))  QΣ,, (1)  \n􀀾  \n􀀺 u(x, 0) = u0 , and v (x, 0) = v0 , x ∈ Ω ,  \nwhere ν represents the outward unit normal to ∂Ω . The problem parameters γ, a, b, c 1 , c2 and c3 appear in (1) are positive real numbers [30] . The RM model is a phenomenological two-variable model and helps to study cardiac action potential propagation within the myocardium, which is the muscular  \n∗ Email: [garai@math.cas.cz](garai@math.cas.cz)  \n†Email: [nagaiah.chamakuri@iisertvm.ac.in](nagaiah.chamakuri@iisertvm.ac.in)  \ntissue of the heart. The state variables u and v represent the spatial and temporal evolution of the transmembrane potential and the recovery variable, respectively. These models reduce the complex array of ion currents to two state variables that describe excitation and recovery through the cardiac tissue. Such kinds of models hold significance due to their ability to undergo thorough mathematical analysis of excitation and recovery processes, represented graphically in a phase plane where u is plotted against v [19] . Several modifications of the FitzHugh-Nagumo model have been proposed to mimic the rate sensitivity of action potential duration [1, 33 , 30 , 27] . Our investigation specifically centers on the RM model [30], notable for its maintenance of a stable resting potential in cardiac myocytes.  \ncoFormputbreviationt,yw,
