Dear Blitz team and others,
  I just wanted to know if it is OK with u guys, if i
hosted the modified blitz-0.6, from my project site.

-----Information about this project-----

Project Download info
http://sourceforge.net/projects/atpg/

  Let me introduce myself. I am Suresh kumar
Devanathan. I am one of Dr. Vishwani Agarwal(IEEE/ACM
fellow) students. I have been building an c++ ATPG,
that might hold your curiosity.

Our research papers, for which thr project was build,
currently in final stages of prepublication, can also
be downloaded from

http://sourceforge.net/projects/atpg/

Comments/errata report are all welcome.

The initial goal of the ATPG project was to build a
customizable ATPG system, that is fast and is
"overhead free". Usually such systems were better
built using c, than c++. Concepts like inheritance,
polymorphism and others, using virtual functions, are
usually unsuitable for compute-bound problems.

However, if one uses template-based techiques, as
employed in other libraries like blitz++, one can, in
fact, build a c++ system that is adaptable at every
level and is still well-suited for compute-bound
problems.

Our ATPG sytem tries to meet the following goals,

 1) designed using template techniques, to allow
object-oriented
programing, without sacrificing efficiency.
 2) STL for maintaining internal data structures
 3) incorporates mathematical package blitz++
 4) extended vectorized algorithmic support for
blitz++ (vtext), so
that data can be analyzed on the fly. [See:
http://www.oonumerics.org/MailArchives/blitz-dev/msg00537.php
, how
these extentions are finding use, by themselves. ]

thanks
suresh
