Appendix A: Obtaining the Software
1994
A large body of numerical software is freely available 24 hours a day via an electronic service called Netlib. In addition to the template material, there are dozens of other libraries, technical reports on various parallel computers and software, test data, facilities to automatically translate FORTRAN programs to C, bibliographies, names and addresses of scientists and mathematicians, and so on. One can communicate with Netlib in one of a number of ways: by email, through anonymous ftp (netlib2.cs.utk.edu) or (much more easily) via the World Wide Web through some web browser like Netscape or Mosaic. The url for the Templates work is: http://www.netlib.org/templates/. The html version of this book can be found in: http://www.netlib.org/templates/Templates.html.
