What is IMSL
The IMSL Fortran Numerical Library version 5.0 integrates the world-renowned IMSL F90 Library with the IMSL Fortran 77 Library into a single, cohesive package.
The IMSL Fortran Library includes new powerful and flexible interface modules that allow for the use of advanced Fortran syntax and optional arguments throughout, while still providing full backward compatibility. These interface modules simplify and speed coding while improving quality by reducing the likelihood of mistakes. They also facilitate development of simpler Fortran applications while providing full depth and control for experienced programmers. Also included are a collection of new numerical algorithms and expanded support for SMP parallel processing.
The strength and precision of the IMSL Numerical Libraries have been evolving steadily for over three decades. Each subroutine and algorithm has undergone rigorous testing and quality assurance, providing users with more time to focus on their application.

How do I use IMSL
The IMSL libraries are available on the Xserve cluster. To utilize this you will need to connect to c-10. To connect to c-10, you will first need to connect to tiamat.som.yale.edu.
Once you are connected to tiamat, type: ssh c-10
Once you are on c-10, you can compile your code using xlf.
