BIDM.Asset.Abstract SupraLU is a thin layer on top of the sequential <a href="http://crd.lbl.gov/~xiaoye/SuperLU/"> SuperLU </a> library. The core of SupraLU is written in C with hooks written in Fortran90 and Python. SupraLU can be used to: <ul> <li> solve linear systems (using the SuperLU engine) <li> compute the determinants <li> compute eigenvalues/eigenvectors (only for the complex version and based on an inverse iteration scheme) <li> perform basic linear algebra operations (matrix.vector multiplications) </ul> <p> The underlying SuperLU data structure uses a compressed column storage format for the sparse matrix representation. The SuperLU structure is manipulated via API calls whose first argument take an <a href="https://w3.pppl.gov/~pletzer/programs/fortran-c-c++/opaque_handles.html">opaque handle </a>. The handle contains the address of the underlying C data structure, it can be freely passed back and forth between C and Fortran/Python. The handle gives an object oriented flavor to SupraLU allowing several instances to co-exist. </p> META
