Versions older than 2017 available?

de_Klein__Niek — Fri, 05 Jul 2019 08:15:54 GMT

Hello,

I would like to use mkl 2016.1.111. On https://registrationcenter.intel.com/en/products I can find older versions, but the latest is from August 2017. Is it possible to get the mkl 2016.1.111 version from somewhere?

Thank you,

Niek

Are there any specific

Are there any specific reasons why you need to use this EOL version of MKL?

Yes, I have a compiled binary

Yes, I have a compiled binary that was made (not by me) with mkl version 2016.1.111 (on OSX) to do eigenvector decomposition. When I recompile the code using a newer version of MKL (on CentOS) and run it on the same data I get the same eigenvalues, and also the first eigenvector is the same, but subsequent eigenvectors get more and more different.
The function call changed (had to remove some const when initializing vslsSSCompute) so I think it might have to do with a difference in return values. I would like to test if I compile it with the EOL version if I get the same results, or if there is some other problem.

binaries.
