Building LSMS

Requirements

LSMS requires a Unix like environment (e.g. Linux or MacOS X) with C++ and Fortran compilers and the following libraries:

• BLAS linear algebra library
• LAPACK linear solvers
• MPI message passing library for parallelization
• CUDA optionally for GPU acceleration, the code can be built without it.

Compiling

Building LSMS uses make with the main Makefile in the top level directory of the distribution. This file includes a system specific file, architecture.h, that describes the specific environment. Examples for this file are provided in architecture.
