Abstract

One trend in modern high performance computing is to decompose a large linear algebra problem into thousands of small problems that can be solved independently. For this purpose we are developing a new BLAS standard (Batched BLAS), allowing users to perform thousands of small BLAS operations in parallel and making efficient use of their hardware. We discuss and introduce some details about how we are implementing this new scientific standard as well as some ideas about the upcoming processes that we plan to follow during its development.
