  • Abstract
    Recently proposed methods for ordering sparse symmetric matrices are discussed and their performance is compared with that of the Minimum Degree and the Minimum Local Fill algorithms. It is shown that these methods applied to symmetrized modified nodal analysis matrices yield orderings significantly better than those obtained from the Minimum Degree and Minimum Local Fill algorithms, in some cases at virtually no extra computational cost
