Abstract

This paper updates the ongoing BLAS effort, and summarizes what types of operations are now available. We now have flavors of BLAS for dense, banded, and sparse vector and matrix operations. Some BLAS are also supported in extended and mixed precision. That effort is carefully chronicled here, by some of the many contributors to the BLAS.
