metis_test

metis_test, C programs which have metis partition unstructured graphs or meshes, and compute fill-reducing reorderings of sparse matrices.

Licensing:

METIS is part of the METIS family of Multilevel Partitioning Algorithms. It was produced by the lab of George Karypis, who states

"It is our general policy to make these tools available to the research community for use in their own research and/or non-commercial applications."

Languages:

metis_test is available in a C version and a C++ version and a FORTRAN90 version.
