1.1 Introduction

The modules performing the different direct methods are discussed in the chapter: Cholesky , Crout  and Gauss , as well as the variants linked to the use of secondary memory. Amongst these solution modules, we also find all the modules needed for the construction of linear systems: modules for the matrix and RHS assembly, modules to impose the boundary conditions, modules to print the data structures...
