Elemental is a modern C++ library for distributed-memory dense linear algebra. The library was initially released in Elemental: A new framework for distributed memory dense linear algebra and is the key building block for the distributed-memory sparse-direct solver Clique.

Please visit the download page for download instructions.

The documentation for the development version of Elemental is built using Sphinx.

Implementations:

1. DPLASMA
2. PLAPACK
3. ScaLAPACK (and the add-on, ELPA)

Wrappers:

1. PETSc
2. Trilinos

Note that PETSc contains interfaces for both Elemental and Clique.
