The BLAS-like Library Instantiation Software (BLIS) is a framework for the rapid instantiation of basic linear algebra functionality targeting modern CPUs. The current project refactors parts of the framework so as to support new precisions, the mixing of precisions and/or domains, and the synthesis of new BLAS-like operations by users including the tensor contractions of importance to (for example) computational chemistry and BLAS-like operations encountered in machine learning. This open-source software has been embraced by major hardware vendors and various Linux distributions. It is supported by an active developer community and industry
