Metis and ParMetis

General Information

Short Description: Programs for partitioning unstructured graphs and hypergraphs and computing fill-reducing orderings of sparse matrices

Long Description:
METIS is a family of programs for partitioning unstructured graphs and hypergraphs and computing fill-reducing orderings of sparse matrices. The underlying algorithms used by METIS are based on the state-of-the-art multilevel paradigm that has been shown to produce high quality results and scale to very large problems.
