NAG recommends that you read the following minimum reference material which can be found in the documentation, together with this note, before calling any library routine:
(a) Introduction to the NAG Fortran SMP Library
(b) Essential Introduction to the NAG Fortran Library
(c) The appropriate Chapter Introduction
(d) The appropriate Routine Document
Assuming that libnagsmp.a has been installed in a directory in the search path of the linker, such as /usr/lib, then you may link to the NAG Fortran SMP Library in the following manner:
(a) Set the environment variable OMP_NUM_THREADS to the number of available processors, e.g.
(for Korn and Bourne shell - ksh, bsh) set OMP_NUM_THREADS=N export OMP_NUM_THREADS (for C shell - csh) setenv OMP_NUM_THREADS Nwhere N is the number of available processors.
(b) Compile and link with the Engineering and Scientific Subroutine Library (ESSL), e.g
xlf_r -q64 -qsmp=omp -qnosave -o driver.exe driver.f -lnagsmp -lesslsmpwhere driver.f is your application program.
nagexample c06eafwill copy the example program and its data into the files c06eafe.f and c06eafe.d in the current directory and process them to produce the example program results.
The example programs supplied to a site in machine-readable form have been modified as necessary so that they are suitable for immediate execution. In some instances they may differ from the example program supplied in the documentation. The distributed example programs should be used in preference wherever possible.
real - DOUBLE PRECISION (REAL*8)
basic precision - double precision
complex - COMPLEX*16
additional precision - quadruple precision (REAL*16)
machine precision - the machine precision, see the value
returned by X02AJF in Section 3
Thus a parameter described as real should be declared as DOUBLE PRECISION in your program. If a routine accumulates an inner product in additional precision, it is using software to simulate quadruple precision.
In some routine documents additional bold italicised terms are used in the published example programs and they must be interpreted as follows:
real as an intrinsic function name - DBLE imag - DIMAG cmplx - DCMPLX conjg - DCONJG e in constants, e.g. 1.0e-4 - D, e.g. 1.0D-4 e in formats, e.g. e12.4 - D, e.g. D12.4
All references to routines in Chapter F07 - Linear Equations (LAPACK) and Chapter F08 - Least-squares and Eigenvalue Problems (LAPACK) use the LAPACK name, not the NAG F07/F08 name. The LAPACK name is precision dependent, and hence the name appears in a bold italicised typeface.
The typeset examples use the single precision form of the LAPACK name. To
convert this name to its double precision form, change the first character
either from S to D or C to Z as appropriate.
For example:
sgetrf refers to the LAPACK routine name - DGETRF cpotrs - ZPOTRS
See Section 4 for additional documentation available from NAG.

The default mechanism contains 273 generators. When OpenMP parallelism is requested by setting the environment variable OMP_NUM_THREADS to a value greater than 1, generators are used to generate independently portions of a sequence of random numbers. The generator assigned to each portion cannot be predetermined; therefore reproducibility of results should not be expected when using these routines in parallel. If reproducibility of random sequences is required, then the standard serial mechanism should be selected using G05ZAF.
