/** \ingroup Support_modules
* \defgroup CholmodSupport_Module CholmodSupport module
*
+ * This module provides an interface to the Cholmod library which is part of the <a href="http://www.cise.ufl.edu/research/sparse/SuiteSparse/">suitesparse</a> package.
+ * It provides the two following main factorization classes:
+ * - class CholmodSupernodalLLT: a supernodal LLT Cholesky factorization.
+ * - class CholmodDecomposiiton: a general L(D)LT Cholesky factorization with automatic or explicit runtime selection of the underlying factorization method (supernodal or simplicial).
+ *
+ * For the sake of completeness, this module also propose the two following classes:
+ * - class CholmodSimplicialLLT
+ * - class CholmodSimplicialLDLT
+ * Note that these classes does not bring any particular advantage compared to the built-in
+ * SimplicialLLT and SimplicialLDLT factorization classes.
