+ BLIS is a portable software framework for instantiating
+high-performance BLAS-like dense linear algebra libraries.
+The framework was designed to isolate essential kernels of computation
+that, when optimized, immediately enable optimized implementations of
+most of its commonly used and computationally intensive operations.
+BLIS is written in ISO C99 and available under a new/modified/3-clause
+BSD license. While BLIS exports a new BLAS-like API, it also includes
+a BLAS compatibility layer which gives application developers access
+to BLIS implementations via traditional BLAS routine calls.
+An object-based API unique to BLIS is also available.
