Scientific Computing

Mathsource
MathSource is a vast electronic library of Mathematica materials, including immediately accessible Mathematica programs, documents, and examples.

Netlib
Netlib is a collection of mathematical software, papers, and databases at UTK and ORNL.

SAL
SAL (Scientific Applications on Linux) is a collection of information and links to software that will be of interest to scientists and engineers.

BLAS
BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are high quality "building block" routines for performing basic vector and matrix operations.

FFTW
FFTW is a C subroutine library for computing the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) in one or more dimensions, of both real and complex data, and of arbitrary input size.
The FFTW package was developed at MIT by Matteo Frigo and Steven G. Johnson.

Form
A package for algebraic manipulation, useful for high energy physics calculations.

GMP
GMP is a free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic, operating on signed integers, rational numbers, and floating point numbers.

LAPACK
LAPACK (Linear Algebra PACKage) provides routines for solving systems of simultaneous linear equations, least-squares solutions of linear systems of equations, eigenvalue problems, and singular value problems. The associated matrix factorizations (LU, Cholesky, QR, SVD, Schur, generalized Schur) are also provided, as are related computations such as reordering of the Schur factorizations and estimating condition numbers. Dense and banded matrices are handled, but not general sparse matrices. In all areas, similar functionality is provided for real and complex matrices, in both single and double precision.

LiDIA
LiDIA is a C library for computational number theory which provides a collection of highly optimized implementations of various multiprecision data types and time-intensive algorithms. LiDIA is developed by the LiDIA Group at the Darmstadt University of Technology.

Numerical Recipes
Numerical Recipes: The Art of Scientific Computing is the title of a series of books developed by Numerical Recipes Software and published by Cambridge University Press. Numerical Recipes also refers to the copyrighted computer software that is in those books, and is the trademark for that software.
