Dense linear solvers are supported via interface to BLAS and LAPACK (Intel MKL on ANSELM). Its extension **EpetraExt** contains, for example, methods for matrix-matrix multiplication. * **Tpetra** - next-generation linear algebra package. Supports 64-bit indexing and arbitrary data type using C++ templates. * **Belos** - library of various iterative solvers (CG, block CG, GMRES, block GMRES etc.). * **Amesos** - interface to direct sparse solvers. * **Anasazi** - framework for large-scale eigenvalue algorithms. -* **IFPACK** - distributed algebraic preconditioner (includes e.g. incomplete LU factorization) -* **Teuchos** - common tools packages.
