PETSc

Abstract
PETSc is a large suite of data structures and routines for both uni- and parallel-processor scientific computing. Intended especially for the numerical solution of large-scale problems modeled by partial differential equations, PETSc provides a rich environment for modeling scientific applications as well as for rapid algorithm design and prototyping. PETSc includes scalable parallel preconditoners and Krylov subspace methods for solving sparse linear systems, as well as parallel nonlinear equation solvers and parallel ODE solvers. The high level PETScView tool provides profiling and visualization of PETSc programs.
