UT Austin really is a fantastic institution for HPC and computational methods.
- bee_rider 3y agoEvery BLAS you want to use has at least some connection to UT Austin’s TACC.
- mgaunard 3y agoaren't the lapack people in tennessee?
- bee_rider 3y agoSort of like BLAS, LAPACK is more than just one implementation. Dongarra described what everybody should do from Tennesse, but other places implemented it elsewhere.
- mgaunard 3y agoplasma and magma are also from there. I'm not aware of any other significant lapack-related developments, but I might just not know about them.
- victotronics 3y agoNot quite. Every modern BLAS is (likely) based on Kazushige Goto's implementation, and he was indeed at TACC for a while. But probably the best open source implementation "BLIS" is from UT Austin, but not connected to TACC.
- bee_rider 3y agoOh really? I thought BLIS was from TACC. Oops, mea culpa.
- RhysU 3y agohttps://github.com/flame/blis/ https://github.com/flame/blis/ Field et al, recent winners of the James H. Wilkinson Prize for Numerical Software. Field and Goto both collaborated with Robert van de Geijn. Lots of TACC interaction in that broader team.
