The IBM Parallel Engineering and Scientific Subroutine Library (Parallel ESSL) is a set of high-performance mathematical subroutines. This book applies to Parallel ESSL for AIX.
This book is a guide and reference manual for use in doing application programming in Fortran, C, and C++. It includes:
This book is meant to be used in conjunction with the ESSL Version 3 Guide and Reference. Where information is identical between Parallel ESSL and ESSL for AIX, such as matrix storage modes, this book references the appropriate section of the ESSL Version 3 Guide and Reference.
This book is written for a wide class of users: scientists, mathematicians, engineers, statisticians, computer scientists, and system programmers. It assumes a basic knowledge of mathematics, Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD) parallel processing concepts and familiarity with Fortran, C, or C++.
