Echelon Forms <strong>of</strong> Matrices<br />

Computing Echelon Forms<br />

Decomposing Spaces Under the Action <strong>of</strong> Matrix<br />

There is also an approach called FFLAS-FFPACK that works just like<br />

above, but <strong>for</strong> the small finite field matrices, does the matrices using a<br />

general floating point BLAS (=Basic <strong>Linear</strong> <strong>Algebra</strong> System), e.g.,<br />

ATLAS.<br />

This can result in additional speedups, but requires that a BLAS be<br />

installed.<br />

This is not yet implemented in <strong>SAGE</strong>, because <strong>SAGE</strong> does not include<br />

an optimized BLAS.<br />
