Availability of LAPACK

The complete LAPACK package or individual routines from LAPACK  are most easily obtained through netlib [32] . At the time of this writing, the e-mail addresses for netlib are

netlib@ornl.gov
netlib@research.att.com
Both repositories provide electronic mail and anonymous ftp service (the netlib@ornl.gov cite is available via anonymous ftp to netlib2.cs.utk.edu), and the netlib@ornl.gov cite additionally provides xnetlib . Xnetlib uses an X Windows graphical user interface and a socket-based connection between the user's machine and the xnetlib server machine to process software requests. For more information on xnetlib, echo ``send index from xnetlib'' | mail netlib@ornl.gov.

General information about LAPACK can be obtained by sending mail to one of the above addresses with the message

send index from lapack

The package is also available on the World Wide Web. It can be accessed through the URL address:

http://www.netlib.org/lapack/index.html

The complete package, including test code and timing programs in four different Fortran data types, constitutes some 735,000 lines of Fortran source and comments.

Alternatively, if a user does not have internet access, the complete package can be obtained on magnetic media from NAG for a cost-covering handling charge.
