The elimination order is simply an ordered list of all the nodes in the net, which specifies how to triangulate the net during compiling (see Spiegelhalter&DLC93).  Triangulation is the most critical step in producing an efficient compilation, so the order is included when the net is next saved to file if an “Optimized Compile” command (which finds a very good elimination order) has been done.  The elimination order is indicated by the numbers following the node names when you view the net in “triangulated style”.
