Your attention is drawn to the terms and conditions of the Software License regarding the use of NAG software. Requests for information about the availability of other implementations must be referred to NAG.
This implementation is a compiled, tested, ready-to-use version of the NAG Library for SMP & Multicore that is considered suitable for operation on the computer systems detailed below:
hardware: x86_64 systems operating system: Linux 2.6.34.7-0.7-desktop (glibc-2.11.2-3.3.1.x86_64) and compatible Fortran compiler: gfortran version 4.6.1 and compatible vendor library: AMD Core Math Library (ACML) version 4.4.0 and compatiblePlease note that this product may NOT work with earlier versions of the compiler (such as version 4.5.x or earlier).
This implementation was produced at NAG Ltd., Oxford on the computing system detailed below:
hardware: AMD64 Shanghai system operating system: Linux 2.6.34.7-0.7-desktop with glibc-2.11.2-3.3.1.x86_64
(openSUSE 11.3 (x86_64)) Fortran compiler: gfortran version 4.6.1 vendor library: AMD Core Math Library (ACML) version 4.4.0 compiler options: -fPIC -fopenmp
Each routine in the NAG Library for SMP & Multicore, Mark 23, was compiled with the highest level of optimization that enabled the functionality provided by the library to be verified and validated. Most routines in the library were compiled with the optimization flag -O3 ; some routines will have been compiled with a lower level of optimization when necessary.

Library software: 189 MB Library Manual: 254 MB
gunzip fsl6a23dfl.tgz tar xvf fsl6a23dfl.tarThis will extract the files install.sh, fs23.tar, lic_agr.txt, in.html and un.html.
If you have downloaded the Library Manual as a tar gzip file (mk23_doc.tgz) run the command
gunzip mk23_doc.tgzto extract the file mk23_doc.tar.
./install.shIf you are logged in as root then by default, the materials will be installed in /opt/NAG/ or /usr/local/NAG/ depending on your system. However, you may choose a different location. In this document we refer to the directory /opt/NAG/fsl6a23dfl or /usr/local/NAG/fsl6a23dfl as [INSTALL_DIR]. This convention is also used in the Users' Note (un.html).
The directory [INSTALL_DIR]/scripts contains two scripts to show how to use the pre-compiled modules and the libraries provided with this implementation. See Users' Note, Section 3.3. Subsequent to the installation, if you move this product to some other location then these scripts must be changed to reflect that fact.
The install script can install the Library Manual in the same location as the NAG Library material or at some other location of your choice.
You may wish to move the Library Manual to the same location as that for other NAG products. You are encouraged to make it readily available to users.
In order to enable the software, NAG will issue you with a license key. The license key is contained in a text file consisting of details of the software that will be enabled.
To request a license key, run the program khostid located in the license/bin/linux_x64/ subdirectory of the software distribution. This utility must be run from a command prompt. Return the information that it displays, together with the product code (in this case FSL6A23DFL), by e-mail (or FAX) to NAG. Alternatively, direct the output from this utility to a file and send both the file and the product code to NAG.
A short term (demonstration or trial) license key contains one or more lines like the following:
FSL6A23DF TRIAL 2011/11/12 "EMnxidA3oeoj0F1Yvi5ibxPjB7"Specifically, it has a line containing the word TRIAL. Longer term license keys must be locked to a specific computer, i.e. they will enable the software on one computer only. These license keys include the word NODE instead of the word TRIAL above.
Once you have obtained one of the above license keys, the easiest way to install it is to store the text in a file,
/opt/NAG/nag.keyor
/usr/local/NAG/nag.keyThe license software in this implementation automatically looks for these particular files and reads the first one found, so no other action is necessary. Alternatively, store the license in a file with a name and location of your choice, say,
[INSTALL_DIR]/license.lic.The location of the license file, if it is not one of the default places listed above, must be made known to the NAG application by setting the environment variable NAG_KUSARI_FILE to the full pathname of the file before the application is invoked.
For example, in the C-shell, type:
setenv NAG_KUSARI_FILE [INSTALL_DIR]/license.licor in the Bourne shell, type:
NAG_KUSARI_FILE=[INSTALL_DIR]/license.lic export NAG_KUSARI_FILE
Further details about Kusari and how it may be configured to suit your local circumstances (e.g. how to install the license key on a server) are included in the Kusari License Management documentation in the license/doc/ subdirectory of the software distribution. See also the Kusari FAQ:
http://www.nag.co.uk/Kusari/kusari_faq.html
The following material should also be made accessible to users:
documentation files:
The nagdoc_fl23 directory contains the Library Manual.
compiled libraries:
libnagsmp.a libnagsmp.so ACML libraries supplied by NAGinterface block files:
nag_interface_blocks/*example program material:
examples/source/??????e.f90 examples/data/??????e.d examples/data/??????e.opt examples/results/??????e.r scripts/nagsmp_example scripts/nagsmp_example_shar
Note that the example material has been adapted, if necessary, from that published in the Library Manual, so that programs are suitable for execution with this implementation with no further changes (but see Section 3.3 of the Users' Note for comments about possible differences in results obtained). Making the example material directly available to users provides them with easily adaptable templates for their own problems.
The NAG Response Centres are available for general enquiries from all users and also for technical queries from sites with an annually licensed product or support service.
The Response Centres are open during office hours, but contact is possible by fax, email and phone (answering machine) at all times.
When contacting a Response Centre, it helps us deal with your enquiry quickly if you can quote your NAG site reference or account number and NAG product code (in this case FSL6A23DFL).
