Full Discussion: V890 Benefits over V880
Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users V890 Benefits over V880 Post 302092425 by reborg on Monday 9th of October 2006 06:37:43 PM

The difference between an 880 and an 890 is the fact that the 890 uses SPARC IV dual core CPUs, these can be either 'plain' IV or IV+. There is a speed increase with the IV and IV+ cpus in addition to the fact that they are dual core. Effectively this means that an 890 has > twice the compute power or an equivalently populated 880. Additionally is is possible to get a RoHS confroming 890 whereas you cannot get an 880 which conforms to the standard.

NAME
slaneg.f - SYNOPSIS
Functions/Subroutines INTEGER function slaneg (N, D, LLD, SIGMA, PIVMIN, R) SLANEG computes the Sturm count. Function/Subroutine Documentation INTEGER function slaneg (integerN, real, dimension( * )D, real, dimension( * )LLD, realSIGMA, realPIVMIN, integerR) SLANEG computes the Sturm count. Purpose: SLANEG computes the Sturm count, the number of negative pivots encountered while factoring tridiagonal T - sigma I = L D L^T. This implementation works directly on the factors without forming the tridiagonal matrix T. The Sturm count is also the number of eigenvalues of T less than sigma. This routine is called from SLARRB. The current routine does not use the PIVMIN parameter but rather requires IEEE-754 propagation of Infinities and NaNs. This routine also has no input range restrictions but does require default exception handling such that x/0 produces Inf when x is non-zero, and Inf/Inf produces NaN. For more information, see: Marques, Riedy, and Voemel, "Benefits of IEEE-754 Features in Modern Symmetric Tridiagonal Eigensolvers," SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, v28, n5, 2006. DOI 10.1137/050641624 (Tech report version in LAWN 172 with the same title.) Parameters: N N is INTEGER The order of the matrix. D D is REAL array, dimension (N) The N diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D. LLD LLD is REAL array, dimension (N-1) The (N-1) elements L(i)*L(i)*D(i). SIGMA SIGMA is REAL Shift amount in T - sigma I = L D L^T. PIVMIN PIVMIN is REAL The minimum pivot in the Sturm sequence. May be used when zero pivots are encountered on non-IEEE-754 architectures. R R is INTEGER The twist index for the twisted factorization that is used for the negcount. Author: Univ. of Tennessee Univ. of California Berkeley Univ. of Colorado Denver NAG Ltd.
