Dense dynamic blocks

Recent processors have been augmented with matrix-multiply units that operate on small matrices, creating a functional unit-rich environment. These units have been successfully employed on dense matrix operations such as those found in the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS). In this work, we exploit these new matrix-multiply facilities to speed up Sparse Matrix Dense Matrix Multiplications (SpMM) for highly sparse matrices.
