Linear Algebra and Math Libraries

A wide variety of High Performance Computing (HPC) applications rely on Linear Algebra and mathematical libraries in order to perform their computations. Therefore, providing optimized versions of these building blocks is important to guarantee good performance for scientific applications.  In addition, the increasing amount of different computer architectures and their specific peculiarities (number of cores, memory hierarchy, processor frequency...) requires a proper adaptation and optimization of the existing libraries; and also drives to the creation of new ones that apply different approaches in order to make the best use of the provided resources.

Following these ideas, our research line pursues the creation and optimization of mathematical libraries by using different programming models, especially those that are based on tasks.
