Package : BLACS

 
BLACS (Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms) project creates linear
algebra oriented message passing that may be implemented efficiently and
uniformly across a large range of distributed memory platforms. The BLACS exist
in order to make linear algebra applications both easier to program and more
portable. The BLACS are implemented in C, but a Fortran call interface is included.
