ColPack

ColPack is a software package consisting of implementations of fast and effective algorithms for a variety of graph coloring, vertex ordering, and related problems. Many of the coloring problems model partitioning needs arising in compression-based computation of Jacobian and Hessian matrices using Automatic Differentiation. Several of the coloring problems also find important applications in various areas outside derivative computation. ColPack is implemented in C++ in an object-oriented fashion heavily using STL.
