Engineering and Scientific Subroutine Library for AIX Version 3 Release 3: Guide and Reference

Overview of the Matrix Operation Subroutines

Some of the matrix operation subroutines were designed in accordance with the Level 3 BLAS de facto standard. If these subroutines do not comply with the standard as approved, IBM will consider updating them to do so. If IBM updates these subroutines, the updates could require modifications of the calling application program. For details on the Level 3 BLAS, see reference [32]. The matrix operation subroutines also include the commonly used matrix operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and transposition (Table 71).
