Sacado
Summary:
The Sacado package provides automatic differentiation tools for C++ applications and is part of the larger Trilinos framework. It provides both forward and reverse modes, and leverages expression templates in the forward mode and a simplified tape data structure in the reverse mode for improved efficiency.
