The ATLAS (Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software) project is an ongoing research effort focusing on applying empirical techniques in order to provide portable performance. It provides C and Fortran77 interfaces to a portably efficient BLAS implementation, as well as a few routines from LAPACK.

Changes:
A much more extensive testing capability was added. Several missing symbols were added from a full LAPACK build. *lamch are now compiled with no optimization. Errors in arch default creation for LAPACK defaults were fixed. A test in the LAPACK build Makefile was changed to get around a Solaris shell incompatibility. Architectural defaults were added for LAPACK QR tuning for AMD64K10h32SSE3, AMD64K10h64SSE3, PPCG564AltiVec, Core232SSE3, and HAMMER64SSE3.
