A survey is given of ways of constructing numerical software for high performance computers to handle linear algebra problems involving dense matrices. The focus is on utilization of new hardware rather than on the development of new algorithms. Typical recasting that occurs within LINPACK and EISPACK is described. Examples are presented in three areas: banded systems, sparse QR-factorization and symmetric eigenvalue problems.
