Introduction
Intel Math Kernel Library, or now known as oneMKL (as part of Intel’s oneAPI), is a library of highly optimized and extensively parallelized routines, that was built to provide maximum performance across a variety of CPUs and accelerators.
There are many functions included in domains such as sparse and dense linear algebra, sparse solvers, fast Fourier transforms, random number generation, basic statistics etc., and there are many routines supported by the DPC++ Interface on CPU and GPU.

progress 100%
Main Fountain
Solve large-scale calculation problems, provide BLAS, LAPACK linear algebra programs, fast Fourier transform, vector mathematical functions, random number generation functions, and other functions.
- BLAS program
BLAS Level 1 Routines: Provides the addition, subtraction, scaling, and point multiplication of vector data. BLAS Level 2 Routines: Provides vector-matrix operations, such as multiplication, update of first-order and second-order matrices, and triangle system solutions. BLAS Level 3 Routines: Provide matrix-matrix operations, such as matrix multiplication, k-order update, and triangle system solution

Setting up MKL
First, you need to download the mkl library from the intel official website through the URL: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit-download.html
Then you need to set additional include directories and additional library directories on visual studio, don’t forget to change the configuration and platform.
Finally, modify the additional dependencies with the help of the URL https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/onemkl-link-line-advisor.html
MKL Testing
In this project I want to compare the running time of the serial version and the optimized version of MKL under multithreading.
The dgemm routine can perform several calculations, so here is two same soulutions to calculate.
serial version
clock_t startTime = clock();
for (i = 0; i < m; i++) {
for (j = 0; j < n; j++) {
sum = 0.0;
for (k = 0; k < p; k++)
sum += A[p * i + k] * B[n * k + j];
C[n * i + j] = sum;
}
}
clock_t endTime = clock();
MKL version
Used to set the number of threads that MKL runs, mkl_set_num_threads().
max_threads = mkl_get_max_threads();
printf(" Finding max number %d of threads Intel(R) MKL can use for parallel runs \n\n", max_threads);
printf(" Running Intel(R) MKL from 1 to %i threads \n\n", max_threads * 2);
for (i = 1; i <= max_threads * 2; i++) {
for (j = 0; j < (m * n); j++)
C[j] = 0.0;
mkl_set_num_threads(i);
cblas_dgemm(CblasRowMajor, CblasNoTrans, CblasNoTrans,
m, n, p, alpha, A, p, B, n, beta, C, n);
s_initial = dsecnd();
for (r = 0; r < LOOP_COUNT; r++) {
cblas_dgemm(CblasRowMajor, CblasNoTrans, CblasNoTrans,
m, n, p, alpha, A, p, B, n, beta, C, n);
}
s_elapsed = (dsecnd() - s_initial) / LOOP_COUNT;

| serial | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9000 | 15.7 | 7.7 | 6.4 | 8.1 | 7.4 | 7.5 |
Here is my computer's number of logical processors.
wmic:root\cli>cpu get numberoflogicalprocessors NumberOfLogicalProcessors 6
When mkl_get_max_threads is equal to the number of physical cores, the performance is the best, not the number of threads, which is the following 3 instead of 6.
