AMD Core Math Library

AMD Core Math Library (ACML) is a software development library released by AMD. This library provides mathematical routines optimized for AMD processors.

Features

ACML consists of the following main components:^[1]

A full implementation of Level 1, 2 and 3 Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), with optimizations for AMD Opteron processors.
A full suite of Linear Algebra (LAPACK) routines.
A comprehensive suite of Fast Fourier transform (FFTs) in single-, double-, single-complex and double-complex data types.
Fast scalar, vector, and array math transcendental library routines
Random Number Generators in both single- and double-precision

Supported platforms

AMD offers pre-compiled binaries for Linux, Solaris, and Windows available for download. Supported compilers include GNU Fortran, Intel Fortran Compiler, Microsoft Visual Studio, NAG, PathScale, PGI compiler, and Sun Studio.^[2]

License

ACML has a proprietary license. The library is distributed in binary form free of charge, but cannot be freely redistributed.^[3]^[4]
