Abstract: We present algorithms for the symbolic and numerical factorization phases in the
direct solution of sparse unsymmetric systems of linear equations. We have modified a classical
symbolic factorization algorithm for unsymmetric matrices to inexpensively compute minimal elimination
structures. We give an efficient algorithm to compute a near-minimal data-dependency graph
that is valid irrespective of the amount of dynamic pivoting performed during numerical factorization.
Finally, we describe an... (Update)
