  Description     : Operators and solvers for high-performance computing.

The PyOperators package defines operators and solvers for high-performance 
computing. These operators are multi-dimensional functions with optimised 
and controlled memory management. If linear, they behave like matrices with 
a sparse storage footprint.

Compared to the existing linop package already available in Debian, this 
package provides more flexibility and tools for finer control of the 
behaviour of abstract mathematical operators. Both the linop and pyoperators 
packages should happily co-exist, the former providing a straightforward 
abstraction for quick prototyping, whilst the latter offers more advanced 
features such as memory management, operator properties, clever composition, 
etc... 

I believe this package would be a good fit for the mathematics-dev blend of 
the Debian-science project, and should be maintained by the Debian science 
team.
