Block coordinate update (BCU) methods enjoy low per-update computational complexity because every time only one or a few block variables would need to be updated among possibly a large number of blocks. They are also easily parallelized and thus have been particularly popular for solving problems involving large-scale dataset and/or variables. In this paper, we propose a primaldual BCU method for solving linearly constrained convex program with multi-block variables. The method is an accelerated version of a primaldual algorithm proposed by the authors, which applies randomization in selecting block variables to update and establishes an <i>O</i>(1/<i>t</i>) convergence rate under convexity assumption. We show that the rate can be accelerated to O ( 1 / t 2 ) if the objective is strongly convex. In addition, if one block variable is independent of the others in the objective, we then show that the algorithm can
