This is the built-in COLAMD function in MATLAB. authors (of the code): Tim Davis and Stefan Larimore Algorithm design collaborators: Esmond Ng, John Gilbert Contents.m a list of contents for 'help SuiteSparse' in MATLAB. CSparse a concise sparse matrix package, developed for my book, "Direct Methods for Sparse Linear Systems", published by SIAM. Intended primarily for teaching. It does have a 'make install' but I recommend using CXSparse instead. In particular, both CSparse and CXSparse have the same include filename: cs.h. This package is used for the built-in DMPERM in MATLAB. author: Tim Davis CSparse_to_CXSparse a Perl script to create CXSparse from CSparse and CXSparse_newfiles author: David Bateman, Motorola CXSparse CSparse Extended. Includes support for complex matrices and both int or long integers. Use this instead of CSparse for production use; it creates a libcsparse.so (or *dylib on the Mac) with the same name as CSparse. It is a superset of CSparse. Any code that links against CSparse should also be able to link against CXSparse instead. author: Tim Davis, David Bateman CXSparse_newfiles Files unique to CXSparse author: Tim Davis, David Bateman share 'make' places documentation for each package here GPUQREngine GPU support package for SPQR (not built into MATLAB, however) authors: Tim Davis, Nuri Yeralan, Sanjay Ranka, Wissam Sid-Lakhdar include 'make' places user-visible include fomes for each package here KLU sparse LU factorization, primarily for circuit simulation. Requires AMD, COLAMD, and BTF. Optionally uses CHOLMOD, CAMD, CCOLAMD, and METIS. authors: Tim Davis, Ekanathan Palamadai LDL a very concise LDL' factorization package author: Tim Davis lib 'make' places shared libraries for each package here Makefile to compile all of SuiteSparse (except GraphBLAS) make compiles SuiteSparse libraries and runs demos make install compiles SuiteSparse and installs in /usr/local make uninstall undoes 'make install' make library compiles SuiteSparse libraries (not demos) make distclean removes all files not in distribution, including ./bin, ./share, ./lib, and ./include. make purge same as 'make distclean' make clean removes all files not in distribution, but keeps compiled libraries and demoes, ./lib, ./share, and ./include. make config displays parameter settings; does not compile Each individual package also has each of the above 'make' targets.

SuiteSparse_install.m install SuiteSparse for MATLAB SuiteSparse_test.m exhaustive test for SuiteSparse in MATLAB ssget MATLAB interface to the SuiteSparse Matrix Collection (formerly called the UF Sparse Matrix Collection). Includes a UFget function for backward compatibility. author: Tim Davis UMFPACK sparse LU factorization. Requires AMD and the BLAS. This is the built-in lu and x=A\b in MATLAB. author: Tim Davis algorithm design collaboration: Iain Duff Some codes optionally use METIS 5.1.0. This package is located in SuiteSparse in the metis-5.1.0 directory. Its use is optional, so you can remove it before compiling SuiteSparse, if you desire. The use of METIS will improve the ordering quality. METIS has been slightly modified for use in SuiteSparse; see the metis-5.1.0/README.txt file for details. SuiteSparse can use the unmodified METIS 5.1.0, however. To use your own copy of METIS, or a pre-installed copy of METIS use 'make MY_METIS_LIB=-lmymetis' or 'make MY_METIS_LIB=/my/stuff/metis-5.1.0/whereeveritis/libmetis.so MY_METIS_INC=/my/stuff/metis-5.1.0/include'. If you want to use METIS in MATLAB, however, you MUST use the version provided here, in SuiteSparse/metis-5.1.0. The MATLAB interface to METIS required some small changes in METIS itself to get it to work. The original METIS 5.1.0 will segfault MATLAB.

Please refer to that package for its License. ================================================================================ QUICK START FOR MATLAB USERS (Linux, Mac, or Windows): uncompress the SuiteSparse.zip or SuiteSparse.tar.gz archive file (they contain the same thing), then in the MATLAB Command Window, cd to the SuiteSparse directory and type SuiteSparse_install. All packages will be compiled, and several demos will be run. To run a (long!) exhaustive test, do SuiteSparse_test. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ QUICK START FOR THE C/C++ LIBRARIES: For just GraphBLAS, do this: cd GraphBLAS/build ; cmake .. ; make ; cd ../Demo ; ./demo cd ../build ; sudo make install For all other packages, type 'make' in this directory. All libraries will be created and copied into SuiteSparse/lib. All include files need by the applications that use SuiteSparse are copied into SuiteSparse/include. All user documenation is copied into SuiteSparse/share/doc. When compiling the libraries, do NOT use the INSTALL=... options for installing. Just do: make or to compile just the libraries without running the demos, do: make library Any program that uses SuiteSparse can thus use a simpler rule as compared to earlier versions of SuiteSparse. If you add /home/myself/SuiteSparse/lib to your library search patch, you can do the following (for example): S = /home/myself/SuiteSparse cc myprogram.c -I$(S)/include -lumfpack -lamd -lcholmod -lsuitesparseconfig -lm To change the C and C++ compilers, and to compile in parallel use: AUTOCC=no CC=gcc CX=g++ JOBS=32 make for example, which changes the compiler to gcc and g++, and runs make with 'make -j32', in parallel with 32 jobs. Now you can install the libraries, if you wish, in a location other than SuiteSparse/lib, SuiteSparse/include, and SuiteSparse/share/doc, using 'make install INSTALL=...' Do 'make install' if you want to install the libraries and include files in SuiteSparse/lib and SuiteSparse/include, and the documentation in SuiteSparse/doc/suitesparse-VERSION. This will work on Linux/Unix and the Mac. It should automatically detect if you have the Intel compilers or not, and whether or not you have CUDA. If this fails, see the SuiteSparse_config/SuiteSparse_config.mk file. There are many options that you can either list on the 'make' command line, or you can just edit that file. For example, to compile with your own BLAS: make BLAS=-lmyblaslibraryhere To list all configuration options (but not compile anything), do: make config Any parameter you see in the output of 'make config' with an equal sign can be modified at the 'make' command line. If you do "make install" by itself, then the packages are all installed in SuiteSparse/lib (libraries), SuiteSparse/include (include *.h files), and SuiteSparse/doc/suitesparse-VERSION (documentation). If you want to install elsewhere, do: make install INSTALL=/my/path which puts the files in /my/path/lib, /my/path/include, and /my/path/doc. If you want to selectively put the libraries, include files, and doc files in different locations, do: make install INSTALL_LIB=/my/libs INSTALL_INCLUDE=/myotherstuff/include INSTALL_DOC=/mydocs for example. Any term not defined will be set to its default, so if you don't want to install the documentation, but wish to install the libraries and includes in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include, do: make install INSTALL_DOC=/tmp/doc which copies the documentation to /tmp/doc where you can then remove it later. Both the static (*.a) and shared (*.so) libraries are compiled. The *.a libraries are left in the package Lib folder (AMD/Lib/libamd.a for example). The main exception to this rule is the SuiteSparse_config library, which is in SuiteSparse/libsuiteSparseconfig.a. SuiteSparse_config is required by all packages. The (extremely) optional xerbla library is also an exception, but it is highly unlikely that you need that library. The 'make uninstall' takes the same command-line arguments. ---------------------------------- Step-by-step details: ---------------------------------- (1) Use the right BLAS and LAPACK libraries Determine where your BLAS and LAPACK libraries are. If the default 'make' does not find them, use 'make BLAS=-lmyblaslibraryhere LAPACK=-lmylapackgoeshere' (2) Install Intel's Threading Building Blocks (TBB) This is optionally used by SuiteSparseQR. Refer to the User Guide in SuiteSparse/SPQR/Doc/spqr_user_guide.pdf for details. (3) Determine what other command line options you need for 'make'. All options can be set at the 'make' command line without the need to edit this file. Browse that file to see what options you can control. If you choose different options and wish to recompile, be sure to do 'make distclean' in this directory first, to remove all files not in the original distribution. (4) Type "make" in this directory. All packages will be be compiled. METIS 5.1.0 will be compiled if you have it (note that METIS require CMake to build it). Several demos will be run. To compile just the libraries, without running any demos, use "make library". The libraries will appear in */Lib/*.so.* (*.dylib for the Mac). Include files, as needed by user programs that use CHOLMOD, AMD, CAMD, COLAMD, CCOLAMD, BTF, KLU, UMFPACK, LDL, etc. are in */Include/*.h. The include files required by user programs are then copied into SuiteSparse/include, and the compiled libraries are copied into SuiteSparse/lib. Documentation is copied into SuiteSparse/doc. The GraphBLAS libraries are created by cmake and placed in GraphBLAS/build. NOTE: on Linux, you may see some errors when you compile METIS ('make: *** No rule to make target 'w'.). You can safely ignore those errors. (6) To install, type "make install". This will place copies of all libraries in SuiteSparse/lib, and all include files in SuiteSparse/include, and all documentation in SuiteSparse/doc/suitesparse-VERSION. You can change the install location by "make install INSTALL=/my/path" which puts the libraries in /my/path/lib, the include files in /my/path/include, and documentation in /my/path/doc. These directories are created if they do not already exist. (7) To uninstall, type "make uninstall", which reverses "make install" by removing the SuiteSparse libraries, include files, and documentation from the place they were installed. If you pass INSTALL_***= options to 'make install', you must pass the same to 'make uninstall'.
