umfpack_2.0, a FORTRAN77 code which solves unsymmetric sparse linear systems, and represents an obsolete version which has since been rewritten in C, by Timothy Davis, Iain Duff.
UMFPACK Version 2.0 is a package for solving systems of sparse linear systems, Ax=b, where A is sparse and can be unsymmetric. It is written in ANSI Fortran77. There are options for choosing a good pivot order, factorizing a subsequent matrix with the same pivot order and nonzero pattern as a previously factorized matrix, and solving systems of linear equations with the factors (with A, L, or U, or their transposes). Iterative refinement, with sparse backward error estimates, can be performed. Both single and double precision routines are available.
There are four primary routines that can be called by the user (where "*" is D for double precision or S for single precision):
