mgmres


mgmres, a Fortran77 code which applies the restarted Generalized Minimum Residual (GMRES) algorithm to solve a sparse linear system, using compressed row storage (CRS) or sparse triplet (ST) format, by Lili Ju.

One matrix format used is the ST or "sparse triplet" format, which simply stores NZ_NUM, the number of nonzeros, and stores the K-th nonzero matrix entry as

Another matrix format used is the CRS or "compressed row storage" format, which is similar to the sparse triplet format except that it the vector of row indices is compressed to a vector of length N+1 which points to the beginning of the set of entries for each row.
