Intel MKL
Intel Math Kernel Library (Intel MKL) is a library of optimized math routines for science, engineering, and financial applications. Core math functions include BLAS, LAPACK, ScaLAPACK, sparse solvers, fast Fourier transforms, and vector math. The routines in MKL are hand-optimized specifically for Intel processors.

Usage on AHPCC clusters
To load the Intel MKL library into your environment use the module command.
tres-l2:pwolinsk:$ module load mkl
This sets the the following environmental variables in your shell: MKLROOT, LDLIBRARYPATH, INCLUDE.
/storage/apps/intel/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/mkl tres-l2:pwolinsk:$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /storage/apps/intel/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/mkl/lib/intel64 tres-l2:pwolinsk:$ echo $INCLUDE /storage/apps/intel/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/composer_xe_2013_sp1.3.174/mkl/include tres-l2:pwolinsk:$
If you are using an Intel compiler to link your code against mkl libraries (module load intel) please refer to the Intel MKL link advisor page.
