LINEAL: A system for numerical linear algebra
College of Arts and Science, Department of Statistics and Computer Science, University of Delaware, Newark, Delaware, USA
This paper describes a computing system that enables linear algebra problems to be simply programmed and efficiently solved. The main features of this language, its translator, and the two modules for the automatic solution of the eigenproblem and systems of linear equations are described. The power of the system lies in the in-depth analysis techniques employed by these modules and in the quantitative error information accompanying the resultant solutions.
