BLIS
A portable software framework for instantiating high-performance BLAS-like dense linear algebra libraries.
What is BLIS?
BLIS is a portable software framework for instantiating high-performance BLAS-like dense linear algebra libraries. It solves the problem of creating optimized BLAS implementations by isolating essential computational kernels that, when optimized, automatically enable high performance across most level-2 and level-3 operations. The framework includes BLAS compatibility and unique object-based APIs.
Developers and researchers building or optimizing dense linear algebra libraries, particularly those targeting new hardware architectures or requiring mixed-datatype operations.
BLIS offers a productivity advantage over traditional BLAS development by compartmentalizing optimization efforts into a few kernels, provides richer functionality like generalized storage and complex domain support, and enables extensibility through addons and plugins.
