Introduction

Vendor Supplied Libraries Usage

The IMSL C Numerical Library contains functions which may take advantage of functions in vendor supplied libraries such as Intel's® Math Kernel Library (MKL) or Sun'sÔ High Performance Library. Functions in the vendor supplied libraries are finely tuned for performance to take full advantage of the environment for which they are supplied. For these functions, the user of the IMSL C Numerical Library has the option of linking to code which is based on either the IMSL legacy functions or the functions in the vendor supplied library.  The following icon in the function documentation alerts the reader when this is the case:

Details on linking to the appropriate IMSL Library and alternate vendor supplied libraries are explained in the online README file of the product distribution.
