The following is a list of recent additions to these pages. The most recent changes are
listed first.
March 24, 2000: Released BLAS Version 1.2F for the Intel
Pentium II. Lookin for beta testers for BLAS 1.3 for Pentium IIIs, and
fixed a problem in cop_dual discription. Also looking for performance
monitoring beta testers and started shared library releases.
December 10, 1999: Released BLAS Version 1.2D for the Intel
Pentium II.
November 15, 1999: Released BLAS Version 1.2B for the Intel
Pentium II.
October 20, 1999: Released BLAS Version 1.2A for the Intel
Pentium II.
August 27, 1999: Released BLAS Version 1.1O and released the
Beta FFTs (soon to be updated!).
January 12, 1999: Fixed a beta=0 case when the input matrix had a
NaN in the BLAS Version 1.1N.
November 16, 1998: Fixed a Solaris x86 linking bug in BLAS
Version 1.1M.
November 6, 1998: Fixed a small zrotg bug in BLAS Version
1.1L. Changed the members page to reflect a change in the LLNL area
code this past six months.
October 16, 1998: Fixed a small crotg bug in BLAS Version
1.1k
October 13, 1998: Made a Stack based version of the BLAS,
and enhanced single precision routines in BLAS Version 1.1j
August 20, 1998: Tuned DGEMM, COPY routines, fixed a bug in
ZGEMM in BLAS Version 1.1h
June 9, 1998: Added zrotg & crotg to BLAS Version 1.1e
June 1, 1998: Improved the BLAS with Version 1.1d and
started the beta testing of the Pentium versions.
April 15, 1998: Improved the BLAS with Version 1.1c, and
introduced the blasnews release notes
to keep people up-to-date.
March 27, 1998: Observed that the extended precision library
had omitted xprint__(), and so this was rebuilt.
March 25, 1998: Better extended precision documentation made
March 19, 1998: Pages introduced with BLAS 1.1a, and Extended
