Embarrassingly parallel means "singe task multiple data" or "multiple task single data". Canonical example: monte carlo simulations.
With that out of the way, basic linear algebra operations that require sophisticated algorithms and are not "embarrassingly parallel": matrix multiplication, matrix inversion, matrix decomposition (SVM, QR, etc). Some of these algos fall into BLAS and others in LAPACK.
