SuperLU
General Information
Short Description: Sparse linear system solver
Long Description: SuperLU is a collection of three ANSI C subroutine libraries for solving sparse linear systems of equations AX=B, where A is a square, nonsingular, n x n sparse matrix, and X and B are dense, n x nrhs matrices. nrhs is the number of right-hand sides and solution vectors.
SuperLU uses Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting (GEPP). The columns of A may be preordered before factorization; the preordering for sparsity is completely separate from the factorization.
It provides functionality for both real and complex matrices, in both single and double precision.

Usage Information:
SuperLU_DIST 2.1 is installed on Abe in /usr/apps/math/superlu.
A version built without the ParMETIS enabled is available.
Compiling: mpicc -I /usr/apps/math/superlu/SuperLU_DIST_2.1/intel10-mvapich2/include ....
Linking: mpicc ... -L /usr/apps/math/superlu/SuperLU_DIST_2.1/intel10-mvapich2/lib -lsuperlu -L ${MKL_HOME}/lib/em64t -lmkl_em64t -lguide -L ${INTEL_HOME}/lib -lifcore
A version with ParMETIS enabled will be made available once supporting software has been recompiled for use with the Intel 10.1 compiler which is needed to fix a compiler bug that impacts MPI_Allreduce used in a certain way in ParMETIS.
