About MV++

MV++ is a small, efficient, set of concrete vector and matrix classes specifically designed for high performance numerical computing.

The MV++ package includes interfaces to the computational kernels found in the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), such as scalar updates, vector sums, and dot products. The idea is to utilize vendor-supplied, or optimized BLAS routines that are fine-tuned for particular platforms.

The various MV++ classes form the building blocks of larger user-level libraries such as SparseLib++[2] and LAPACK++[1]. The MV++ library was put together with the following principles in mind:
