AMD Core Math Library

AMD Core Math Library (ACML) is an end-of-life software development library released by AMD. This library provides mathematical routines optimized for AMD processors.

The successor to ACML is the AMD Optimizing CPU Libraries (AOCL), a set of mostly open source libraries compiled for AMD64 processors. It includes the open source BLIS (software), BLIS, LAPACK#Implementations, libFLAME, ScaLAPACK, FFTW, and AOCL-Sparse, plus the original closed-source AMD LibM, memcpy, and RNG.

Features

ACML consists of the following main components:
* A full implementation of Level 1, 2 and 3 Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), with optimizations for AMD Opteron processors.
* A full suite of Linear Algebra (LAPACK) routines.
* A comprehensive suite of Fast Fourier transform (FFTs) in single-, double-, single-complex and double-complex data types.
* Fast scalar, vector, and array math transcendental library routines
* Random Number Generators in both single- and double-precision

Supported platforms

AMD offers pre-compiled binaries for Linux, Solaris (operating system), Solaris, and Microsoft Windows, Windows available for download. Supported compilers include GNU Fortran, Intel Fortran Compiler, Microsoft Visual Studio, Numerical Algorithms Group, NAG, PathScale, PGI compiler, and Sun Studio (software), Sun Studio.

License

ACML has a proprietary freeware license. The library is distributed in binary form free of charge, but cannot be freely redistributed.ACML EULA
