What’s in This Version
HP MLIB for Itanium Linux Version 9.6 Release Note12
MPI Parallelism
Internal parallelism in ScaLAPACK and SuperLU_DIST is implemented using MPI—a
portable, scalable programming model that gives distributed-memory parallel programmers a
simple and flexible interface for developing parallel applications. The MPI parallel libraries
ScaLAPACK and SuperLU_DIST in HP MLIB were built and tested with HP-MPI Version
2.2. For MPI parallelism issues, refer to the HP-MPI documents available at
http://docs.hp.com.
NOTE Do not link with the libraries from the package lam in the directory /usr/lib.
Demo or Performance Modes
HP MLIB V9.4 and earlier versions for Linux were available in demo mode and required a
license key for full performance. This version does not require a license key for full
performance, and the demo mode is no longer available. HP MLIB for Itanium® Linux
Version 9.6 can be installed and used without any license key. However, as in the past, users
are still required to purchase a license certificate in order to have the right to use the HP
MLIB product.
