Netlib LibrariesOverviewThe Netlib repository contains freely available software, documents, and databases of interest to the numerical, scientific computing, and other communities. The repository is maintained by AT&T Bell Laboratories, the University of Tennessee and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and by colleagues world-wide. The Netlib libraries that we have installed are the standard numerical linear algebra ones for serial and parallel vector and matrix operations. Namely:
The BLACS library is the MPI version. The libraries are built from the reference source code at Netlib. We recommend the use of the SCSL library which incorporates all the libraries above and has been optimised for our machines architecture. This version of the libraries may be useful for reference. Restrictions on UseThese software packages are freely available from Netlib via anonymous ftp and the World Wide Web. It is copyrighted but is not trademarked. Netlib ask that if any routines are included in commercial software packages that proper credit be given to the authors. If you modify the source for these routines they ask that you change the name of the routine and comment the changes made to the original. Set Up ProcedureYou will need to load the netlib module. You then need to link to the specific libraries listed below:
Running the Code
To link your code with the Netlib routines
use the When using ScaLAPACK the procedure is complicated. For example to use ScaLAPACK and the BLAS you will need a command like:
The order the libraries are linked to is important, and note there are two instances
