-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-11511 2010-07-30 07:44:20 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : atlas Product : Fedora 13 Version : 3.8.3 Release : 16.fc13 URL : http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/ Summary : Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software Description : The ATLAS (Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software) project is an ongoing research effort focusing on applying empirical techniques in order to provide portable performance. At present, it provides C and Fortran77 interfaces to a portably efficient BLAS implementation, as well as a few routines from LAPACK. The performance improvements in ATLAS are obtained largely via compile-time optimizations and tend to be specific to a given hardware configuration. In order to package ATLAS for Fedora some compromises are necessary so that good performance can be obtained on a variety of hardware. This set of ATLAS binary packages is therefore not necessarily optimal for any specific hardware configuration. However, the source package can be used to compile customized ATLAS packages; see the documentation for information. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Create a sse2 sub-package on x86_64 architecture for those processors without sse3 extensions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jul 26 2010 Deji Akingunola <[email protected]> - 3.8.3-16 - Create a subpackage for SSE2 on x86_64 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #573484 - octave crash calling the eig function on an older AMD CPUs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=573484 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update atlas' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/. All packages are signed with the Fedora Project GPG key.
