The initial public release of ScaLAPACK occurred
last year,
and included routines for:
- the solution of a general system
of linear equations via LU and Cholesky factorizations,
- orthogonal factorizations (QR, RQ, LQ, and QL),
- reduction to condensed form
(upper Hessenberg, tridiagonal form, and bidiagonal),
- and the symmetric eigenproblem.
Since this initial public release, many
improvements have been underway to increase the flexibility and
functionality of the library.
