BLIS: A Framework for Rapid Instantiation of BLAS Functionality

The BLAS Libray Instantiation Software (BLIS) is a new framework for the rapid instantiation of Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) functionality. The fundamental innovation is the insight that virtually all computation within level-2 (matrix-vector) and level-3 (matrix-matrix) BLAS operations can be expressed in terms of very simple kernels. While others had made similar insights, BLIS bri...

BLIS: A Modern Alternative to the BLAS

We propose the portable BLAS-like Interface Software (BLIS) framework which addresses a number of shortcomings in both the original BLAS interface and present-day BLAS implementations. The framework allows developers to rapidly instantiate high-performance BLAS-like libraries on existing and new architectures with relatively little effort. The key to this achievement is the observation that vir...

Analytical Models for the BLIS Framework

We show how the BLAS-like Library Instantiation Software (BLIS) framework, which provides a more detailed layering of the GotoBLAS (now maintained as OpenBLAS) implementation, allows one to analytically determine optimal tuning parameters for high-end instantiations of the matrix-matrix multiplication. This is of both practical and scientific importance, as it greatly reduces the development ef...
