# SVDELEMENTAL

SVDELEMENTAL = “elemental” - A wrapper to Elemental singular value solvers [Poulson et al., 2013].

## Notes

Only available for standard SVD problems.

Elemental has a direct singular value solver, that is, the full spectrum is computed. Its storage format is similar to ScaLAPACK, but different, and it may have better parallel performance in some cases. The SLEPc solver is also in charge of the redistribution of matrices.
