Abstract

The paper presents methods for developing high performance computational cores and dense linear algebra routines. Different approaches for performing matrix multiplication algorithms are analysed for hierarchical memory computers, taking into account their architectural properties and limitations. Block versions of matrix multiplication and LU-decomposition algorithms are described. The performance results of these new algorithms for several processors are compared with the results obtained for optimized LAPACK and BLAS libraries.
