The supercomputer's name originates from the use of the Mac OS X operating system for each node, and because it was the first university computer to achieve 10 teraflops on the high performance LINPACK benchmark.

The SLATEC package is special in that it comprises a number of other packages like BLAS and LINPACK.

He has contributed to the design and implementation of the following open source software packages and systems: EISPACK, LINPACK, the BLAS, LAPACK, ScaLAPACK, Netlib, PVM, MPI, NetSolve, Top500, ATLAS, and PAPI.

LAPACK, in contrast, depends upon the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms ( BLAS ) in order to effectively exploit the caches on modern cache-based architectures, and thus can run orders of magnitude faster than LINPACK on such machines, given a well-tuned BLAS implementation.

The LINPACK and HPL benchmarks relies heavily on DGEMM, a BLAS subroutine, for its performance.

* Dongarra Oral History In an oral history interview, Jack Dongarra explores the early relationship of BLAS to LINPACK, the creation of higher level BLAS versions for new architectures, and his later work on the ATLAS system to automatically optimize BLAS for particular machines.

LINPACK is a program for performing numerical linear algebra on computers.

LINPACK is a software library for performing numerical linear algebra on digital computers.

In December, 1996, three quarters of ASCI Red was measured at a world record 1. 06 TFLOPS on MP LINPACK and held the record for fastest supercomputer in the world for several consecutive years, maxing out at 2. 38 TFLOPS after a processor and memory upgrade in 1999.

Traditional benchmarks that existed before NPB, such as the Livermore loops, the LINPACK Benchmark and the NAS Kernel Benchmark Program, were usually specialized for vector computers.

LINPACK was designed to run on the then-modern vector computers with shared memory.

He designed it to give his students access to LINPACK and EISPACK without them having to learn Fortran.

Its performance on the LINPACK benchmark was 35. 86 TFLOPS, which was almost five times faster than ASCI White.

With a delivered LINPACK performance of 122. 4 TFLOPS, ES2 was the most efficient supercomputer in the world at that point.

The new Earth Simulator system, which began operation in March 2009, achieved sustained performance of 122. 4 TFLOPS and computing efficiency (* 2 ) of 93. 38 % on the LINPACK Benchmark (* 1 ).

The LINPACK Benchmark is a measure of a computer's performance and is used as a standard benchmark to rank computer systems in the TOP500 project.

The phrase RTFM may have first appeared in print in 1979 on the Table of Contents page of the LINPACK Users ' Guide in the form: " R. T. F. M.

Claimed performance was 12, 300 gigaflops, although this was not achieved in the widely accepted LINPACK tests.

According to LINPACK benchmark, an ETA10 with a single processor achieved 52 MFLOPS on 100 ^ 2 LINPACK.

The LINPACK benchmarks appeared initially as part of the LINPACK user's manual.

LAPACK can be seen as the successor to the linear equations and linear least-squares routines of LINPACK and the eigenvalue routines of EISPACK.

The need for interchange and understanding makes vital the full use of all methods of consultation.

This conclusion is based on two propositions: that man by the use of his reason can ascertain God's purpose in the universe and that God makes known His purpose by certain `` given '' physical arrangements.

In the absence of a truly adequate conceptuality in which the gospel can be expressed, the unavoidable need to demythologize it makes use of whatever resources are at hand -- and this usually means one or another of the various forms of `` folk religion '' current in the situation.

He even buys a lot of the products he sees advertised -- despite the fact that the copy makes no special bid for his favor and sponsors rarely use any but white models in commercials.

Aided AAC makes great use of symbols, particularly for non-literate users, as well as a large variety of input methods.

While casuistry makes use of ethical theory, it does not view ethical theory as the most important feature of moral reasoning.

Native Chinese cuisine makes frequent use of Asian leaf vegetables like bok choy and kai-lan and puts a greater emphasis on fresh meat and seafood.

) Compositing software is used to combine images, and makes extensive use of alpha compositing techniques.

It is commonly used for daily life, particularly in matters concerning marriage and career, and makes extensive use of electional, horary and karmic astrology.

In his works Plato makes extensive use of the Socratic dialogues in order to discuss contrary positions within the context of a supposition.

Scarlatti's style, however, is more than a transitional element in Western music ; like most of his Naples colleagues he shows an almost modern understanding of the psychology of modulation and also frequently makes use of the ever-changing phrase lengths so typical of the Napoli school.

The technique makes use of absorption spectrometry to assess the concentration of an analyte in a sample.

The use of a separate lamp makes this technique the least accurate one, as it cannot correct for any structured background.

* The SEQUEST algorithm for analyzing mass spectra makes use of autocorrelation in conjunction with cross-correlation to score the similarity of an observed spectrum to an idealized spectrum representing a peptide.

Active Directory makes use of Lightweight Directory Access Protocol ( LDAP ) versions 2 and 3, Kerberos and DNS.

A deeper criticism of Green archaeoastronomy is that while it can answer whether there was likely to be an interest in astronomy in past times, its lack of a social element means that it struggles to answer why people would be interested, which makes it of limited use to people asking questions about the society of the past.

The lack of moving parts makes them appropriate for long term use in exposed automated weather stations and weather buoys where the accuracy and reliability of traditional cup-and-vane anemometers is adversely affected by salty air or large amounts of dust.

A magnetic amplifier is a transformer-like device that makes use of the saturation of magnetic materials to produce amplification.
