For previous versions of FFTW, he was supported in part by the +Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), under Grants +N00014-94-1-0985 and F30602-97-1-0270, and by a Digital Equipment +Corporation Fellowship. +</p> +<p>Steven G. Johnson was supported in part by a Dept. of Defense NDSEG +Fellowship, an MIT Karl Taylor Compton Fellowship, and by the Materials +Research Science and Engineering Center program of the National Science +Foundation under award DMR-9400334. +</p> +<p>Code for the Cell Broadband Engine was graciously donated to the FFTW +project by the IBM Austin Research Lab and included in fftw-3.2. (This +code was removed in fftw-3.3.) +</p> +<p>Code for the MIPS paired-single SIMD support was graciously donated to +the FFTW project by CodeSourcery, Inc. +</p> +<p>We are grateful to Sun Microsystems Inc. for its donation of a +cluster of 9 8-processor Ultra HPC 5000 SMPs (24 Gflops peak). These +machines served as the primary platform for the development of early +versions of FFTW. +</p> +<p>We thank Intel Corporation for donating a four-processor Pentium Pro +machine. We thank the GNU/Linux community for giving us a decent OS to +run on that machine. +</p> +<p>We are thankful to the AMD corporation for donating an AMD Athlon XP 1700+ +computer to the FFTW project. +</p> +<p>We thank the Compaq/HP testdrive program and VA Software Corporation +(SourceForge.net) for providing remote access to machines that were used +to test FFTW. +</p> +<p>The <code>genfft</code> suite of code generators was written using Objective +Caml, a dialect of ML. Objective Caml is a small and elegant language +developed by Xavier Leroy. The implementation is available from +<a href="http://caml.inria.fr/"><code>http://caml.inria.fr/</code></a>. In previous +releases of FFTW, <code>genfft</code> was written in Caml Light, by the same +authors. An even earlier implementation of <code>genfft</code> was written in +Scheme, but Caml is definitely better for this kind of application. +<a name="index-Caml-1"></a> +<a name="index-LISP"></a> +</p> + +<p>FFTW uses many tools from the GNU project, including <code>automake</code>, +<code>texinfo</code>, and <code>libtool</code>. +</p> +<p>Prof. Charles E. Leiserson of MIT provided continuous support and +encouragement. This program would not exist without him. Charles also +proposed the name “codelets” for the basic FFT blocks. +<a name="index-codelet-3"></a> +</p> + +<p>Prof. John D. Joannopoulos of MIT demonstrated continuing tolerance of +Steven’s “extra-curricular” computer-science activities, as well as +remarkable creativity in working them into his grant proposals. +Steven’s physics degree would not exist without him. +</p> +<p>Franz Franchetti wrote SIMD extensions to FFTW 2, which eventually +led to the SIMD support in FFTW 3. +</p> +<p>Stefan Kral wrote most of the K7 code generator distributed with FFTW +3.0.x and 3.1.x. +</p> +<p>Andrew Sterian contributed the Windows timing code in FFTW 2. +</p> +<p>Didier Miras reported a bug in the test procedure used in FFTW 1.2. We +now use a completely different test algorithm by Funda Ergun that does +not require a separate FFT program to compare against. +</p> +<p>Wolfgang Reimer contributed the Pentium cycle counter and a few fixes +that help portability. +</p> +<p>Ming-Chang Liu uncovered a well-hidden bug in the complex transforms of +FFTW 2.0 and supplied a patch to correct it. +</p> +<p>The FFTW FAQ was written in <code>bfnn</code> (Bizarre Format With No Name) +and formatted using the tools developed by Ian Jackson for the Linux +FAQ. +</p> +<p><em>We are especially thankful to all of our users for their +continuing support, feedback, and interest during our development of +FFTW.</em> +</p> +<hr> +<div class="header"> +<p> +Next: <a href="License-and-Copyright.html#License-and-Copyright" accesskey="n" rel="next">License and Copyright</a>, Previous: <a href="Installation-and-Customization.html#Installation-and-Customization" accesskey="p" rel="prev">Installation and Customization</a>, Up: <a href="index.html#Top" accesskey="u" rel="up">Top</a> [<a href="index.html#SEC_Contents" title="Table of contents" rel="contents">Contents</a>][<a href="Concept-Index.html#Concept-Index" title="Index" rel="index">Index</a>]</p> +</div> + + + +</body> +</html>
