1. A method of solving for a contribution of matrix coefficients, comprising the steps of:

  • retrieving data elements corresponding to a first contributing matrix coefficient, and storing each of said data elements as a model stored data element in a first model;

    retrieving data elements corresponding to a second contributing matrix coefficient, and storing each of said data elements as a model stored data element in a second model;

    linking each model stored data element of said first and second models to the corresponding contributing matrix coefficient by a pointer reference;

    determining first and second contributing matrix coefficients by reference to said model stored data elements;

    summing said first and second contributing matrix coefficients to produce a sum matrix; and

    , solving said sum matrix.
