我们描述的设计，实施和性能的前端代码的大型，稀疏，非对称系统的线性方程组的解决方案。由此产生的软件包MA 42包含在Harwell Subroutine Library的Release 11中，旨在取代早期的MA 32包。我们详细讨论了MA 42内的高级BLAS内核的广泛使用，并说明了一系列的实际问题上的CRAY Y-MP，IBM 3090和IBM RISC System/6000的性能。我们研究扩展的前沿解决方案，使用多个战线，让MA 42并行运行。我们指出了未来发展的一些方向。
We describe the design, implementation, and performance of a frontal code for the solution of large, sparse, unsymmetric systems of linear equations. The resulting software package, MA42, is included in Release 11 of the Harwell Subroutine Library and is intended to supersede the earlier MA32 package. We discuss in detail the extensive use of higher-level BLAS kernels within MA42 and illustrate the performance on a range of practical problems on a CRAY Y-MP, an IBM 3090, and an IBM RISC System/6000. We examine extending the frontal solution scheme to use multiple fronts to allow MA42 to be run in parallel. We indicate some directions for future development.
