UMFPACK - Routines for solving unsymmetric sparse linear systems
UMFPACK is a set of routines for solving
 unsymmetric sparse linear systems, Ax=b, using the Unsymmetric
 MultiFrontal method. It uses dynamic memory allocation, and has a
 symbolic preordering and analysis phase that also reports the upper
 bounds on the nonzeros in L and U, flop count, and memory usage in the
 numeric phase. It can be used for real and complex matrices,
 rectangular and square, and both non-singular and singular.
