This list covers only mathematical and statistical packages. You can find elsewhere information on 3rd party application packages in other areas. The Axiom computer algebra system is installed on modi4. You can also run Axiom in batch mode or in the background. The current version is Aztec 2.0 in the subdirectory Aztec.
Simplicity is attained using the notion of a global distributed matrix.
Issues such as local numbering, ghost variables, and messages are ignored by the user and are instead computed by an automated transformation function. Additionally, Aztec takes advantage of advanced partitioning techniques and utilizes efficient dense matrix algorithms when solving block sparse matrices. BLAS BLAS is a collection of routines that perform basic operations involving matrices and vectors. The Silicon Graphics Scientific Mathematical Library, complib.sgimath, is a comprehensive collection of high-performance math libraries providing technical support for mathematical and numerical techniques used in scientific and technical computing. This library is provided by SGI for the convenience of the users.
