Dear Luis Pineda, I wonder wether in your case it might be an simple alternative not to use a geostats library, but a linear algebra package like LAPACK directly.
Kriging computations is mainly about building the right matrices in the computer memory and solving the resulting linear equation system. The rest is convenience functions and user interfaces. So if your model does not obay the typical rules of data arrangements like: 1D-3D data, variogram-modelling, stationarity (maybe not good for computer models), it might be more difficult to use the typical matrix builders of geostats than programming it directly in C and what remains is the linear algebra. LAPACK is a generic the linear algebra package used as backend in most software packages anyway. Thus you might get more performance with less programming effort. You should only keep in mind to eighter use a search neighbourhood or the dual kriging representation (typically making computations way faster). Best regards, Gerald Am Samstag, 9.
