Does MAGMA support out-of-core computations ?

Post by tavishvaidya » Mon Dec 26, 2011 12:33 pm

I haven't use MAGMA as of now and wanted to know that does MAGMA 1.1 support out-of-core memory operations without having to worry about the division of input data ? The input data is more than the capacity of global memory available with the GPU, and for such a case, is it possible to just allocate the memory on the CPU and let MAGMA figure out how to do the computations on the bigger input data ?

MAGMA 1.1 supports "out-of-core" computations for the one-sided factorizations (LU, QR, and Cholesky).
