=== New sparse matrix format for Octave ===
=== New sparse matrices for Octave ===
[http://librsb.sourceforge.net/ Michele Martone]
[http://librsb.sourceforge.net/ Michele Martone] presented his (future) Octave package for sparse matrix using recursive blocks (quad-tree blockification of matrices). He is very willing to collaborate with any development that could use his code.
presented his (soon to be released) Octave package for sparse matrices "sparsersb".
The package enables Octave users to transparently use the "librsb"
multithreaded sparse matrix library from Octave, gaining performance
in the application of sparse matrix-vector multiplication operations on
large matrices (e.g.: when applying iterative methods).
Early testing efforts are very welcome.
Code and information is already available on [http://librsb.sourceforge.net] .
