Good news: look up BLAS, and you will find a standard interface for doing matrix computations. There are parallel implementations available: Atlas, AMD ACML, Intel's math lib, etc etc. Bad news: Are you really inverting the matrix? You should probably be doing something like LU decomposition. -- greg _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
