LAPACK/ScaLAPACK Development

Dear All,
could anyone please tell me how to get a BLAS optimized to a particular machine and how install CLAPACK using this optimized BLAS.


thanks a lot

It depends on the machine...

i also need to get optimized BLAS for my Intel Core 2 Duo Q9550, 64 bit machine.

can anyone help/guide me please??

thanks

LInux or Windows?

For Linux, you can use ATLAS, GOTO BLAS, MKL or ACML. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatica ... a_Software
For WIndows, depending how you are developing, I would recommend ACML or MKL.

Please have a look at:
http://www.netlib.org/lapack/faq.html#2.5

yah.. its windows.. and i am trying to use Cygwin to compile ATLAS but i am unable to find the kickstart document on how to do so.

please let me know if there is any document i can use for reference.

thank you

Hi there,

i tried compiling ATLAS with cygwin but i am getting following error:

can anyone help me with this:-

Is it that 64bit ATLAS compilation is not supported by cygwin, if so, what are my options?
