Intel MKL is a popular math library used by many to create fast and reliable applications in science, engineering, and finance. Do you know it is now available for free (at no cost)? The community licensing program gives anyone, individuals or organizations, free license for the latest version of Intel MKL. There is no royalty for distributing the library in an application. The only restrictions are:
- Online registration is required.
- No access to Intel Premier Support, but the Intel MKL support forum is open to everyone.
- No access to the previous versions. At any time, only the latest released version is available.
Better yet, this community licensing program is not just for MKL, it is applicable to other Intel performance libraries including:
- Intel Data Analytics Acceleration Library (Intel DAAL)
- Intel Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel IPP)
- Intel Threading Building Blocks (Intel TBB)
