Hypre

The Parallel High Performance Preconditioners (hypre) is a library of routines for scalable (parallel) solution of linear systems. The built-in BLOPEX package in addition allows solving eigenvalue problems. The main strength of Hypre is availability of high performance parallel multigrid preconditioners for both structured and unstructured grid problems, see (Falgout et al., 2005, 2006).

Currently, Hypre supports only real double-precision arithmetic. Hypre uses the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard for all message-passing communication. PETSc has an interface to call Hypre preconditioners.

Hypre is being developed and is supported by members of the Scalable Linear Solvers project within the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Features

hypre provides the following features:

  • Parallel vectors and matrices, using several different interfaces
  • Scalable parallel preconditioners
  • Built-in BLOPEX
gollark: Instead of not vectorizing it, it would vectorize it.
gollark: It would operate on the assembly and bees bees autovectorize.
gollark: For example, an `autovectorize` macro to apify the assembly code.
gollark: You should make macros able to operate on literally all of the compiler stages.
gollark: I can see you're already being indoctrinated with the server culture.
