A subset of sparspak is available from netlib -- these routines are those
which appear in the book "Computer Solution of Large Sparse Positive Definite
Systems" by George and Liu, Prentice Hall 1981. Sparspak as obtainable under
licence from Waterloo contains a lot of extra s/ware for actually getting your
problem into the form which is required by the main routines.

To obtain further information send mail to either netlib@research.att.com (US)
or netlib@ukc.ac.uk (UK/Europe) with the message body

send index from sparspak

a second set of routines which may be of interest are the y12m routines

send index from y12m

and some routines in C

send index from sparse

further information about netlib and what's available
