Magma ICL - University The MAGMA project aims to develop a Multi-GPU
of Tennessee dense linear algebra library similar to Single Node
Knoxville LAPACK but for heterogeneous/hybrid
architectures, starting with current
“Multicore+GPU” systems. The MAGMA
research is based on the idea that, to
address the complex challenges of the
emerging hybrid environments, optimal
software solutions will themselves have
to hybridize, combining the strengths
of different algorithms within a single
framework. Building on this idea, we aim
to design linear algebra algorithms and
frameworks for hybrid manycore and GPU
systems that can enable applications to
fully exploit the power that each of the
hybrid components offers.
