How To Install blis-openmp64 on CentOS 8
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install blis-openmp64 on CentOS 8.
What is blis-openmp64
BLIS is a portable software framework for instantiating high-performance BLAS-like dense linear algebra libraries. The framework was designed to isolate essential kernels of computation that, when optimized, immediately enable optimized implementations of most of its commonly used and computationally intensive operations. While BLIS exports a new BLAS-like API, it also includes a BLAS compatibility layer which gives application developers access to BLIS implementations via traditional BLAS routine calls. This packaging contains automatically-dispatched architecture-optimized kernels for some targets, notably recent x86_64. This is the OpenMP-parallelized version with a 64-bit integer interface.
We can use yum or dnf to install blis-openmp64 on CentOS 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install blis-openmp64.
