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] . | |||
