The BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are routines that provide
|
||
|
|
standard building blocks for performing basic vector and matrix
|
||
|
|
operations. The Level 1 BLAS perform scalar, vector and vector-vector
|
||
|
|
operations, the Level 2 BLAS perform matrix-vector operations, and
|
||
|
|
the Level 3 BLAS perform matrix-matrix operations. Because the BLAS
|
||
|
|
are efficient, portable, and widely available, they are commonly used
|
||
|
|
in the development of high quality linear algebra software, LAPACK
|
||
|
|
for example.
