DSSKYD (n, au, iaudiag, nau, bx, ldbx, nbx, iparam, rparam, iwrk, rwrk, ierror)
n integer*4 On entry, the order of the matrix A. On exit, n is unchanged. au real*8 On entry, an array of length at least nau, containing the matrix A stored in the skyline storage scheme, using either the profile-in, or the diagonal-out storage mode. On exit, au contains the transp(U)*D*U factorization of the matrix A. au must remain unchanged between the call to the routine DSSKYD and any subsequent calls to the routines DSSKYS, DSSKYC, and DSSKYR. iaudiag integer*4 On entry, an array of length at least n for the profile-in storage mode and (n+1) for the diagonal-out storage mode, containing the pointers to the locations of the diagonal elements in array AU. On exit, iaudiag is unchanged. nau integer*4 On entry, the number of elements in array AU. nau is also the envelope size of the symmetric part of the matrix A. For the profile-in storage mode, nau = IAUDIAG(n). For the diagonal-out storage mode, nau = IAUDIAG(n+1) - 1. On exit, nau is unchanged. bx real*8 On entry, a two dimensional array BX of order ldbx by at least nbx, containing the nbx right sides. On exit, bx contains the solutions for the nbx systems. ldbx integer*4 On entry, the leading dimensional of array BX. ldbx >= n. On exit, ldbx is unchanged. nbx integer*4 On entry, the number of right sides. On exit, nbx is unchanged. iparam integer*4 An array of length at least 100, containing the integer parameters for the simple driver. iparam(1): niparam On entry, defines the length of the array IPARAM. niparam >= 100. On exit, iparam(1) is unchanged. iparam(2): nrparam On entry, defines the length of the array RPARAM. nrparam >= 100. On exit, iparam(2) is unchanged. iparam(3): niwrk On entry, defines the size of the integer work array, IWRK. niwrk >=2n. On exit, iparam(3) is unchanged. iparam(4): nrwrk On entry, defines the size of the real work array, RWRK. As the real work array is not used at present, nrwrk can be unspecified. On exit, iparam(4) is unchanged. iparam(5): iounit On entry, defines the I/O unit number for printing error messages and information from the routine DSSKYD. The I/O unit must be opened in the calling subprogram. If iounit <= 0, no output is generated. On exit, iparam(5) is unchanged. iparam(6): iolevel On entry, defines the message level that determines the amount of information printed out to iounit, when iounit > 0. iolevel = 0 : fatal error messages only iolevel = 1 : error messages and minimal information iolevel = 2 : error messages and detailed information On exit, iparam(6) is unchanged. iparam(7): idefault On entry, defines if the default values should be used in arrays IPARAM and RPARAM. If idefault = 0, then the following default values are assigned: IPARAM(1) = niparam = 100 IPARAM(2) = nrparam = 100 IPARAM(6) = iolevel = 0 IPARAM(8) = istore = 1 IPARAM(9) = ipvt = 0 RPARAM(1) = pvt_sml = 10**(-12) If idefault = 1, then you must assign values to the above variables before the call to the DSSKYD routine. On exit, iparam(7) is unchanged. iparam(8): istore On entry, defines the type of storage scheme used for the skyline matrix. If istore = 1, the matrix A is stored using the profile-in storage mode; if istore = 2, the matrix A is stored using the diagonal-out storage mode. Default: istore = 1. On exit, iparam(8) is unchanged. iparam(9): ipvt On entry, defines if the factorization should continue when a small pivot, (defined by RPARAM(1), is encountered. If ipvt = 0 and the absolute value of the pivot element is smaller than pvt_sml = RPARAM(1), then the factorization process is stopped and control returned to the calling subprogram. If ipvt=1 and a pivot smaller than RPARAM(1) in absolute value is encountered in the factorization, the process continues. If ipvt=2 and a pivot smaller than RPARAM(1) in absolute value, is encountered in the factorization, it is replaced by a predetermined value pvt_new = RPARAM(2), and the factorization is continued. Default: pvt_new = 0. On exit, iparam(9) is unchanged. iparam(10): ipvt_loc On entry, an unspecified variable. On exit, iparam(10) contains the location of the first pivot element smaller in absolute value than pvt_sml. The pivot element is returned in pvt_val = RPARAM(3). If iparam(10)= 0, then no such pivot element exits. rparam real*8 An array of length at least 100, containing the real parameters for the simple driver. rparam(1): pvt_sml On entry, defines the value of the pivot element which is considered to be small. If a pivot element smaller than pvt_smlin absolute value is encountered in the factorization process, then, depending on the value of ipvt = IPARAM(9), the process either stops, continues or continues after the pivot is set equal to pvt_new = RPARAM(2). pvt_sml > 0. Recommended value: 10**(-15) <= pvt_sml <= 1. Default: pvt_sml = 10**(-12). On exit, rparam(1) is unchanged. rparam(2): pvt_new On entry, defines the value to which the pivot element must be set if ipvt = 2 and the pivot element is less than pvt_sml in absolute value. pvt_sml should be large enough to avoid overflow when calculating the reciprocal of the pivot element. On exit, rparam(2) is unchanged. rparam(3): pvt_val On entry, an unspecified variable. On exit, rparam(3) contains the value of the first pivot element smaller than pvt_sml in absolute value. This element occurs at the location returned in IPARAM(10). If no such pivot element is found, the value of pvt_val is unspecified. iwrk integer*4 On entry, an array of length at least 2n used for integer workspace. On exit, the first 2n elements of iwrk contain information generated by the factorization routine DSSKYF. This information is required by routines that use the factorization such as DSSKYS, DSSKYC, DSSKYR and remain unchanged between the call to DSSKYD and any subsequent calls to one of these routines. rwrk real*8 On entry, an array used for real workspace. On exit, rwrk is unchanged. Presently, rwrk is not used by the routine DSSKYD. It can be a dummy variable. ierror integer*4 On entry, an unspecified variable. On exit, ierror contains the error flag. A value of zero indicates a normal exit from the routine DSSKYD.
DSSKYD is a simple driver routine that factors and solves the system A X = B where A is a symmetric matrix stored in a skyline form, using either the profile-in storage mode or the diagonal-out storage mode; B is a matrix of nbx right sides and X is the matrix of the corresponding nbx solution vectors. On entry to the routine DSSKYD, the array BX contains the nbx right sides; on exit, these are overwritten by the solution vectors. The matrix A is first factorized as A = transp(U)*D*U by a call to the routine DSSKYF. U is a unit upper triangular matrix and D is a diagonal matrix. The routine DSSKYF does not perform any pivoting to preserve the numerical stability of the transp(U)*D*U factorization. It is therefore primarily intended for the solution of symmetric positive (or negative) definite systems as they do not require pivoting for numerical stability. Caution is urged when using this routine for symmetric indefinite systems. If a small pivot, in absolute value, pvt_sml, is encountered in the process of factorization, you have the option of either stopping the factorization process and returning to the calling subprogram, continuing the factorization process with the small value of the pivot, or continuing after setting the pivot equal to some predetermined value, pvt_new. The location of the first occurrence of a small pivot is returned in ipvt_loc and its value in pvt_val. After the factorization has been obtained without any error, the routine DSSKYD calls the solve routine, DSSKYS, to solve the system. The call to the routine DSSKYD can be followed by a call to the routines DSSKYS, DSSKYC and DSSKYR, provided the first 2n elements of the work array IWRK remain unchanged between calls. The real workspace array, RWRK, is not used at present.
