Sparse Matrix Storage Formats for
Inspector-executor Sparse BLAS Routines
Inspector-executor Sparse BLAS routines support four
conventional sparse matrix storage formats:
- compressed sparse row format (CSR) plus variations
- compressed sparse column format (CSC) plus variations
- coordinate format (COO)
- block sparse row format (BSR) plus variations
Computational routines operate on a matrix handle that stores a matrix
in CSR or BSR formats. Other formats should be converted to CSR or BSR format
before calling any computational routines. For more information see
Sparse Matrix
Storage Formats.
