Available: cublas, openblas, clblas. +## cuBLAS: This is a GPU-accelerated version of the complete standard BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) library. It's provided by Nvidia and is part of their CUDA toolkit. +## OpenBLAS: This is an open-source implementation of the BLAS library that aims to provide highly optimized code for various platforms. It includes support for multi-threading and can be compiled to use hardware-specific features for additional performance. OpenBLAS can run on many kinds of hardware, including CPUs from Intel, AMD, and ARM. +## clBLAS: This is an open-source implementation of the BLAS library that uses OpenCL, a framework for writing programs that execute across heterogeneous platforms consisting of CPUs, GPUs, and other processors. clBLAS is designed to take advantage of the parallel computing power of GPUs but can also run on any hardware that supports OpenCL. This includes hardware from different vendors like Nvidia, AMD, and Intel. # BUILD_TYPE=openblas ## Uncomment and set to true to enable rebuilding from source
