Whenever the NAG Parallel Library has been supplied in compiled form, that form is considered to be the standard library file. The use of all supplied software must be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Software Licence signed by NAG and each site. In particular, users must not have free access to the text of the library routines. Any request to use NAG software on a computer other than the one licensed must be referred to NAG (see Section 6).
This implementation is a compiled, tested, ready-to-use version of the NAG Parallel Library that is considered suitable for operation on the computer systems detailed below:
hardware: Hitachi SR8000
operating system: HI-UX/MPP
Fortran compiler: HI-UX/MPP OFORT90 or compatible
C compiler: The Hitachi C compiler and run-time libraries
must be installed if source is to be recompiled
MPI: HI-UX/MPP MPI P30MP201
If a different implementation of MPI is installed, the supplied BLACS libraries may have to be rebuilt with different options set in the file Bmake.inc. The objects in these libraries should be placed in the main NAG Parallel Library archive (libnagmpi.a).
For information about implementations of the NAG Parallel Library for use on other computer systems please contact NAG.
This implementation was produced at NAG Ltd., Oxford on the computing system detailed below:
hardware: Hitachi SR8000 operating system: HI-UX/MPP release 03-00 version ad2b0 Fortran compiler: HI-UX/MPP OFORT90 (000307IR) compiler options: -64 +SBTLB C compiler: HI-UX/MPP C,C++ (00sk3IR) compiler options: -64 MPI: HI-UX/MPP MPI P30MP201
The supplied archive library (libnagmpi.a) includes the Fortran MPI version of the Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms (BLACS v1.1, with patch02 dated 18.8.98).
The entire NAG Parallel Library, Release 3, was compiled with the following optimization:
-O4 -W0,"pvec,langlvl(save(0)),opt(divmove(0))"
This implementation has been tested using the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) provided by NAG in the archive libnagmpiblas.a.
For further details, refer to other documentation supplied or contact NAG (see Section 6).

compiled libraries, libnagmpi.a: 8.6 Mb
libnagmpiblas.a: 0.9 Mb
libnagfls.a: 0.8 Mb
example program material: 2.3 Mb
documentation files: 0.1 Mb
scripts: 0.2 Mb
library source code: 15.7 Mb
(not needed on disk permanently)
To install all material (including source), use the Unix tar utility, e.g.
tar xvf /cdrom/fd03.tar(assuming the CD-ROM has been mounted as /cdrom).
The source code should be needed only for reference by whoever is responsible for the installation of the library. It should not be made available to users. The include files are required only if the source code is to be recompiled.
Links to the object libraries libnagmpi.a, libnagmpiblas.a and libnagfls.a may be placed in a directory, such as /usr/lib, in the default search path of the linker so that linkage is convenient.
The script nagmpiexample is intended to provide users with a simple means of access to the example material. It will require some minor edits to reflect the local installation and should be placed in a directory, such as /usr/local/bin, which is on users' execution search paths.
For example, give the command
nagmpiexample f04ebfpto run the F04EBFP example program. Almost all the example programs have 4 processes. nagmpiexample runs these in the partition specified by the environment variable DEFPART.
The following material should also be made accessible to users:
other library documentation (see Section 5)
compiled libraries:
libnagmpi.a libnagmpiblas.a libnagfls.aexample program material:
examples/source/*e.f examples/data/*e.d examples/results/*e.r scripts/nagmpiexample
Making the supplied example material directly available to users provides them with easily adaptable templates for their own problems.
On-line documentation is also provided, in PDF form, with this implementation. Please see the Readme file on the distribution medium for further information.
The NAG Response Centres are available for general enquiries from all users and also for technical queries from sites with an annually licensed product or support service.
The Response Centres are open during office hours, but contact is possible by fax, email and phone (answering machine) at all times.
When contacting a Response Centre please quote your NAG site reference and NAG product code (in this case FDHI803DM).
The NAG websites are an information service providing items of interest to users and prospective users of NAG products and services.
