Review: rocalution 7.2.4-1~exp1

Package Information

DescriptionROCm library for iterative sparse solvers - library

rocALUTION is a library that provides iterative sparse preconditioners and solvers. The rocALUTION project began as a port of PARALUTION to the AMD ROCm platform. This library supports an OpenMP backend for multi-core CPUs and an MPI backend for multi-node clusters.

rocALUTION provides a C++ API containing implementations of fixed-point iteration schemes such as Jacobi iteration and Gauss-Seidel; Krylov subspace methods such as the conjugate gradient method and the biconjugate gradient stabilized method; a mixed-precision defect correction scheme; a Chebyshev iteration scheme; as well as geometric and algebraic multigrid solvers. There are also a wide variety of sparse preconditioners, including several based on matrix splitting schemes, factorization schemes, and approximate inverses.

This package provides the AMD ROCm rocALUTION library.

Comment:
 The first few commits of the rocALUTION project source history note
 that rocALUTION was derived from PARALUTION v1.2.0. That version of
 PARALUTION was never otherwise published, but PARALUTION v1.1.0 was
 documented as copyright 2015, PARALUTION Labs UG (haftungsbeschränk).
