MAGMA LU Decompositions, Factorizations, and Eigensolvers for Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessors Released

February 2, 2015 by Rob Farber Leave a Comment

MAGMA MIC 1.3.1  now provides implementations for MAGMA’s one-sided (LU, QR, and Cholesky) and two-sided (Hessenberg, bi- and tridiagonal reductions) dense matrix factorizations, as well as linear and eigenproblem solver for Intel Xeon Phi Coprocessors.

The MAGMA MIC 1.3.1 release adds
  • Added orthogonal transformations routines
    {zun|cun|dor|sor}mbr
    {zun|cun|dor|sor}mlq
    {zun|cun|dor|sor}mql
  • Added SVD routine using divide and conquer algorithm
    {z|c|d|s}gesdd
  • Performance optimizations for the two-sided factorizations
    (reductions to bidiagonal, tridiagonal, and upper Hessenberg)
  • Added zscal, hemv for CPU, copy functions
  • Added LDLt without pivoting
  • Added hybrid solver for symmetric indefinite problems using the Bunch-Kaufman diagonal pivoting method
    {zhe|che|dsy|ssy}sv

More information on the approach is given in this presentation. See the Magma software section for a download link.
