Open Source High Performance Math Libraries

BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines): Contains subroutines and functions for a number of basic linear algebra operations:

– Dot product

– Givens rotation generation and application

– Vector updates

– Matrix-vector product update

– Triangular system solve (with single or multiple right hand sides)

– Matrix-matrix product update – ...

The routines operate on various storage formats and on four data types (single, double, complex, double complex).

LAPACK (Linear Algebra PACKage): High level algorithms and tricky numerical algorithms go into LAPACK.

– Factorizing matrices

• LU,Cholesky,QR,QL,RQ,LQ,...

– Applying factored-form orthogonal matrices

– Solving linear equations

– Solving linear least squares problems

– Decomposing matrices

SVD,Schur,... – Computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors

Symmetric,non-symmetric,... – Error bounds, condition estimation

BLACS (Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subroutines): BLACS’ purpose is to create a linear algebra oriented message passing interface that may be implemented efficiently and uniformly across a large range of distributed memory platforms.

FFTW (Fastest Fourier Transform in the West): FFTW is a C subroutine library for computing the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions, of arbitrary input size, and of both real and complex data (as well as of even/odd data, i.e. the discrete cosine/sine transforms or DCT/DST). We believe that FFTW, which is free software, should become the FFT library of choice for most applications.
