Distinctive Characteristics of ASL
Japanese Page
- ASL is an object library.
For version R20.1 or its successors, the C interface library to use ASL function not only from the Fortran programs but also from the C and C++ programs is included in ASL package. For version R20.0 or its formerly, ASLCINT is also necessary to access ASL Fortran library from the C programs. (Integration and Abolition of ASL Related Products)
- ASL incorporates the latest advances in numerical analysis and employs algorithms having superior speed and precision.
- ASL provides many functions in various fields of scientific and technical computing.
- ASL can be used on various hardwares. In the same version of ASL, they share a common input/output interface. So, users can develop their programs on distributed environments.
- ASL is designed to demonstrate hardware performance fully. Especially ASL which are for NEC supercomputer SX-series, realizes ultrahigh performance, using vector processing and/or parallel processing to take advantage of SX system hardware features.
As for the Parallel Processing Functions of SPARC Solaris, x86 Solaris, HP-UX and IA-64 Linux version ASL for multi-processors, the subroutines are parallelized using the compiler directive of OpenMP.
- The ASL manual descriptions cover all information of utilizing this software compactly. Further more, English and Japanese on-line manuals are available.
