For example, I found this article on "Parallelization of GSL:=20=20 Architecture, Interfaces, and Programming Models" form 2004: https://commerce.metapress.com/content/jtp50vjc1e3gwane/resource-secured/?t= arget=3Dfulltext.pdf&sid=3Dmedqeqrui2yyng45okahx345&sh=3Dwww.springerlink.c= om I also found a message by Brian Gough from 2002 stating that it would=20=20 not fit the design of GSL (Message-ID:=20=20 <15656.48877.30970.694792@debian>). Would there be any objections if one started to a few include OpenMP=20=20 directives in the code? They would not at all interfere with normal=20=20 usage of GSL in single-threaded calculations. If they should even be=20=20 optional for the use of GSL in OpenMP calculations, they could be=20=20 flagged by a run-time or compile-time (preferred for performance)=20=20 switch. Thoughts?
