Sollya: An Environment for the Development of Numerical Codes

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 6327))

Abstract

Sollya has become a mature tool for the development of numerical software. With about 175 built-in algorithms and a broad extensibility, it offers a complete tool-chain for fixed- and floating-point software and hardware design. Its features include on-the-fly faithful rounding, specialized approximation algorithms and extensive support for floating-point code generation.
