GSoC 2017: Implementing iterative solvers for numerical linear algebra | The central part of my GSoC project is about implementing the Jacobi-Davidson method natively in Julia, available in JacobiDavidson.jl (https://github.com/haampie/JacobiDavidson.jl). This method computes a few approximate solutions of the eigenvalue problem Ax = lambda Bx for large and sparse mat…

Creating domain-specific languages in Julia using macros | Since the beginning of Julia, it has been tempting to use macros to write domain-specific languages (DSLs), i.e. to extend Julia syntax to provide a simpler interface to create Julia objects with complicated behaviour. The first, and still most extensive, example is JuMP (https://github.com/Ju…
