                 Parallelizing dense matrix computations to distributed
                 memory architectures is a well-studied subject and
                 generally considered to be among the best understood
                 domains of parallel computing.  Two packages, developed
                 in the mid 1990s, still enjoy regular use: ScaLAPACK and
                 PLAPACK.  With the advent of many-core architectures,
                 which may very well take the shape of distributed
                 memory architectures within a single processor, these
                 packages must be revisited since the traditional MPI-based
                 approaches will likely need to be extended. Thus, this is a
                 good time to review lessons learned since the introduction
                 of these two packages and to propose a simple yet effective
                 alternative.  Preliminary performance results show the new
                 solution achieves competitive, if not superior, performance
                 on large clusters.",
