ACAL®
Overview
ACAL® (Advanced Complex Algebra Library) is an out-of-core linear system solution library, using a hyper-matrix approach to partition the problem.
Applications
- Static load analysis
- Structural dynamics
- Computational fluid dynamics
- Radar cross section
- Econometric modeling
- Acoustic target strength
- Matrix algebra
Benefits
- ACAL allows high computation efficiency when properly tuned for the platform used.
- ACAL performs nearly all vectorizable operations thus, minimizing memory bandwidth requirements. Nearly peak theoretical machine performance for linear system solution can be achieved.
- ACAL can complete symmetric matrices that have been only filled by accumulating entries across the matrix diagonal. For symmetric matrices, this allows a twofold reduction in generation time. It also supports symmetry in the matrix solution process.
