Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL) is a highly optimized, extensively threaded, and thread-safe library of mathematical functions for engineering, scientific, and financial applications that require maximum performance.

Intel MKL 11.3 Update 2 packages are now ready for download. Intel MKL is available as part of the Intel® Parallel Studio XE and Intel® System Studio . Please visit the Intel® Math Kernel Library Product Page.

Intel® MKL 11.3 Update 2 Bug fixes

New Features in MKL 11.3 Update 2

Introduced mkl_finalize function to facilitate usage models when Intel MKL dynamic libraries or third party dynamic libraries are linked with Intel MKL statically are loaded and unloaded explicitly
Compiler offload mode now allows using Intel MKL dynamic libraries
Added Intel TBB threading for all BLAS level-1 functions
Intel MKL PARDISO:
- Added support for block compressed sparse row (BSR) matrix storage format
- Added optimization for matrixes with variable block structure
- Added support for mkl_progress in Parallel Direct Sparse Solver for Clusters
- Added cluster_sparse_solver_64 interface
Introduced sorting algorithm in Summary Statistics

What's New in Intel MKL 11.3:

Batch GEMM Functions
Introduced new 2-stage (inspector-executor) APIs for Level 2 and Level 3 sparse BLAS functions
Introduced MPI wrappers that allow users to build custom BLACS library for most MPI implementations
Cluster components (Cluster Sparse Solver, Cluster FFT, ScaLAPACK) are now available for OS X*
Extended the Intel MKL memory manager to improve scaling on large SMP systems
