SLEPc: Scalable Library for Eigenvalue Problem Computations

             http://www.grycap.upv.es/slepc

We are pleased to announce the release of SLEPc 2.1.5, a parallel
software library for the solution of large sparse eigenvalue problems on
parallel computers. It can be used for the solution of problems
formulated in either standard or generalized form, both Hermitian and
non-Hermitian, with either real or complex arithmetic.

SLEPc is built on top of PETSc, the Portable Extensible Toolkit for
Scientific Computation (http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc). It can be
considered an extension of PETSc providing all the functionality
necessary for the solution of eigenvalue problems. SLEPc includes
several eigensolvers as well as interfaces to other libraries such as
ARPACK. It also provides built-in support for spectral transformations
such as shift-and-invert.

This software should be considered as part of an ongoing project and we
plan to continue its improvement by adding more solvers and tools.
Please send bug reports, questions, and requests for new features to
slepc-maint at grycap.upv.es
