You can order this product Intel Math Kernel Library (Intel MKL) directly at the vendor now (list of items)

• Outstanding performance on Intel processors
  Achieve outstanding performance with the math library that is highly optimized for Intel Itanium , Intel Xeon, Intel Pentium 4, and Intel Core™2 Duo processor-based systems. Special attention has been paid to optimizing multi-threaded performance for the new Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor 5300 series. Intel MKL performance is competitive with that of other math software packages on non-Intel processors.
• Multi-core ready
  Excellent scaling on multiprocessor systems
  Use the built-in parallelism of Intel MKL to automatically obtain excellent scaling on multiprocessors including the latest dual and quad-core systems. Intel MKL Level-3 BLAS, Fast Fourier transforms, and Vector Math are threaded using OpenMP.
  Thread-Safety
  All Intel MKL functions are thread-safe. A non-threaded serial version of Intel MKL is also provided.
• Automatic runtime processor detection
  A runtime check is performed so that processor-specific optimized code is executed, ensuring that your application achieves optimal performance on whatever system it is executing on.
• Support for C and Fortran interfaces
  Unlike some alternative math libraries that require you to purchase multiple products to get C and Fortran interfaces, Intel MKL includes both.
• Support for all Intel processors in one package
  Alternative math libraries require you to purchase multiple products for support of Intel Itanium 2, Intel Xeon, and Pentium 4 processors. Intel MKL includes support for ALL of these processors in a single, inexpensive package.
• Royalty-free distribution rights
  Redistribute unlimited copies of the runtime libraries with your software.
• Intel Premier Support
  Receive one year of world-class technical support with every purchase of Intel MKL. During this period, you can download product upgrades free of charge, including major version releases.

Functionality:

• Linear Algebra - BLAS and LAPACK
  Deploy BLAS and LAPACK routines that are highly optimized for Intel processors, and that provide significant performance improvements over alternative implementations. Intel MKL 10.0 is compliant with the new 3.1 release of LAPACK.
• Linear Algebra - ScaLAPACK
  The Intel MKL implementation of ScaLAPACK can provide significant performance improvements over the standard NETLIB implementation.
• Linear Algebra- Sparse Solvers
  Solve large, sparse linear systems of equations with the PARDISO Direct Sparse Solver – an easy-to-use, thread-safe, high-performance, and memory-efficient software library licensed from the University of Basel. Intel MKL also includes Conjugate Gradient and FGMRES iterative sparse solvers.
• Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT)
  Utilize our multi-dimensional FFT routines (1D up to 7D) with a modern, easy-to-use C/ Fortran interface. Intel MKL supports distributed memory clusters with the same API enabling you to improve your performance by distributing the work over a large number of processors with minimal effort. Intel MKL also provides a set of C routines ("wrappers") that mimic the FFTW 2.x and 3.0 interfaces making it easy for current FFTW users to plug Intel MKL into their existing applications.
• Vector Math Library
  Increase application speeds with vectorized implementations of computationally intensive core mathematical functions (power, trigonometric, exponential, hyperbolic, logarithmic, and more).
• Vector Random Number Generators
  Speed up your simulations using our vector random number generators, which can provide substantial performance improvements over scalar random number generator alternatives.
• LINPACK Benchmark
  Intel provides free LINPACK benchmark packages to help you obtain the highest possible benchmark results for your Intel architecture-based systems.
