Description : The BLACS (Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms) project is
: an ongoing investigation whose purpose is to create a linear algebra
: oriented message passing interface that may be implemented efficiently
: and uniformly across a large range of distributed memory platforms.
:
: The length of time required to implement efficient distributed memory
: algorithms makes it impractical to rewrite programs for every new
: parallel machine. The BLACS exist in order to make linear algebra
: applications both easier to program and more portable.
:
: This package contains BLACS libraries compiled with openmpi.
