Riccardo,
thanks. I participated in the SG14 linear algebra calls and I think that
the proposal is very valuable. If the proposal makes it into the standard
IMHO we should integrate it into ublas and extend the current tensor
concept.
In any case, we need to redesign and make the implementation more readable
anyways. For that reason
- we started the tensor project in 2018 which has a cleaner interface (wiki
<https://github.com/boostorg/ublas/wiki/Tensor>) .
- we had two great gsoc projects in 2019, one provides a more generic
tensor template and the other enhancing the built-in expression templates
using boost::yap (wiki <https://github.com/BoostGSoC19/tensor/wiki>)
- in gsoc 2020 we will hopefully have an experimental version of matrix and
vector with a cleaner interface and implementation.
Thanks again, we need such input!
CB
