      The planar mappings of matrix data in sparse Cholesky factorization for distributed-memory computer systems of the MIMD-type are discussed. Several mapping strategies are analyzed and tested, e.g. fan-in, fan-out, grid mapping with row balancing, proportional and subforest-to-subcube mapping. New heuristics enable to improve existing block column mapping algorithms. The algorithms developed are tested and compared on IBM SP1 and Crat T3D systems.
