Byrne, G D

EPISODEB is a package of eight subroutines for the numerical solution of the initial value problem for systems of first order ordinary differential equations whose Jacobian matrices are banded or can be approximated by band matrices. The package can be used for either stiff or non-stiff systems whose Jacobians can be approximated by band matrices. It is especially suited to problems with intermittent high-speed transients or waves.IBM360,370; FORTRAN IV; OS/360,370; 102K bytes are used to execute the double-precision version of the sample problem.
