+ The Trilinos Project is an effort to develop algorithms and enabling
+technologies within an object-oriented software framework for the
+solution of large-scale, complex multi-physics engineering and
+scientific problems. A unique design feature of Trilinos is its focus
+on packages.
+
+The package has two building methods, the default is for a single
+system (without parallelism).
+
+* The trilinos can also be compiled against individual packages
+(i.e. amd, umfpack and metis) outside of suitesparse.SlackBuild.
+** The suitesparse.SlackBuild, doesn't build metis by default.
+For that you can use the parMETIS.SlackBuild.
+For more details about dependeces the Xyce webpage.
+have a list of required depences.
+
+Optional dependences:
+For enable parallelism set PARALLEL=yes. This requires the
+ParMETIS library and a MPI implementation (openmpi or mpich).
+To enable CUDA set CUDA=yes (Additional requirements: CUDA
+SDK and CUSPARSE).
