Abstract

State-of-the-art, uni-processor linear matrix equation solvers for automatic control computations are investigated and compared for various problem sizes. General-purpose SLICOT solvers are the most efficient ones for small-size problems, but they cannot compete for larger problems with specialized solvers designed for certain problem classes.
