Name: LAPACK
Version: 3.0
+ update 5/31/2000 w/ ATLAS 3.4.1
Description:
This is an ATLAS-enhanced
version of the widely-used LAPACK library of Fortran 77 routines for
solving systems of linear equations, eigenproblems, and singular value
problems. The package also includes routines for matrix factorizations
and related operations. LAPACK supports both real and complex matrices
in both single and double precison.
On SciClone, we have
installed multiple copies of the LAPACK library, individually tuned
for each type
of node in the system, in both 32-bit (v8) and 64-bit (v9) versions.
Installation Path:
/usr/local/[v8plusa,v9a]/c3/lib/liblapack.a
/usr/local/[v8plusb,v9b]/[c5,db1,n2,s3]/lib/liblapack.a
/usr/local/man/manl
Documentation:
Usage Notes:
To link to one of the
ATLAS-enhanced versions of LAPACK, add the following options to your
link command:
-L/usr/local/<arch>/<node_type>/lib
-llapack -lf77blas -latlas
such that <arch>
and <node_type> match one of the choices listed above under
"Installation Path".
Use of the LAPACK and
ATLAS libraries on a node type other than the one for which they were
built may result in poor performance (if the program wiil even run at
all). For example, a program linked to the c5 version of the library
most likely will fail if it is executed on a c3 node. Similarly, a 32-bit
(v8) library cannot be linked against a 64-bit (v9) application, and
vice versa.
Sun's Performance
Library contains an alternative LAPACK implementation which has
also been tuned for UltraSPARC architectures.
