Playa: High-Performance Programmable Linear Algebra

Playa: High-Performance Programmable Linear Algebra

This paper introduces Playa, a high-level user interface layer for composing algorithms for complex multiphysics problems out of objects from other Trilinos packages. Among other features, Playa provides very high-performance overloaded operators implemented through an expression template mechanism....
