LAPACK working note No. 10: Installing and testing the initial release of LAPACK Unix and non-Unix versions
This working note describes how to install and test the initial release of LAPACK. LAPACK is intended to provide a uniform set of subroutines to solve the most common linear algebra problems and to run efficiently on a wide range of architectures. The routines presented at this time are intended not for general distribution, but only for initial testing. We expect the testing to reveal weaknesses in the design, and we plan to modify routines to correct any deficiencies. The instructions for installing, testing, and timing are designed for a person whose responsibility is the maintenance of a mathematical software library. This paper provides instructions for Unix users installing a tar tape, and contains instructions for non-Unix users. We assume the installer has experience in compiling and running Fortran programs and in creating object libraries. The installation process involves reading a tape, creating a library from the Fortran source, running the tests, and sending the results to Argonne. 6 refs.
