DESCRIPTION

   C <- ALPHA  op(A) B + BETA C     C <- ALPHA D op(A) B + BETA C
   C <- ALPHA op(A) D B + BETA C
 where ALPHA and BETA are scalar, C and B are m by n dense matrices,
 D is a block  diagonal matrix,  A is a unit, or non-unit, upper or 
 lower triangular matrix represented in block sparse row format 
 format and  op( A )  is one  of
  op( A ) = inv(A) or  op( A ) = inv(A')  or  op( A ) =inv(conjg( A' ))
  (inv denotes matrix inverse,  ' indicates matrix transpose)
 All blocks of A on the main diagonal MUST be triangular matrices.


ARGUMENTS

 TRANSA        Indicates how to operate with the sparse matrix
                 0 : operate with matrix
                 1 : operate with transpose matrix
                 2 : operate with the conjugate transpose of matrix.
                     2 is equivalent to 1 if matrix is real.
 MB            Number of block rows in matrix A
 N             Number of columns in matrix C
 UNITD         Type of scaling:
                 1 : Identity matrix (argument DV[] is ignored)
                 2 : Scale on left (row block scaling)
                 3 : Scale on right (column block scaling)
 DV()          Array of the length MB*LB*LB consisting of the block 
               entries of block diagonal matrix D where each 
               block is stored in standard column-major form.
 ALPHA         Scalar parameter
 DESCRA()      Descriptor argument.  Five element integer array
               DESCRA(1) matrix structure
                 0 : general
                 1 : symmetric (A=A')
                 2 : Hermitian (A= CONJG(A'))
                 3 : Triangular
                 4 : Skew(Anti)-Symmetric (A=-A')
                 5 : Diagonal
                 6 : Skew-Hermitian (A= -CONJG(A'))

               Note: For the routine, DESCRA(1)=3 is only supported.

               DESCRA(2) upper/lower triangular indicator
                 1 : lower
                 2 : upper
               DESCRA(3) main diagonal type
                 0 : non-identity blocks on the main diagonal
                 1 : identity diagonal block
               DESCRA(4) Array base  (NOT IMPLEMENTED)
                 0 : C/C++ compatible
                 1 : Fortran compatible
               DESCRA(5) repeated indices? (NOT IMPLEMENTED)
                 0 : unknown
                 1 : no repeated indices
 VAL()         scalar array of length LB*LB*BNNZ consisting of the block 
               entries stored column-major within each dense block.
 BINDX()       integer array of length BNNZ consisting of the
               block column indices of the block entries of A.
               The block column indices MUST be sorted                 
               in increasing order for each block row.
 BPNTRB()      integer array of length MB such that 
               BPNTRB(J)-BPNTRB(1)+1 points to location in BINDX
               of the first block entry of the J-th block row of A.
 BPNTRE()      integer array of length MB such that 
               BPNTRE(J)-BPNTRB(1) points to location in BINDX
               of the last block entry of the J-th block row of A.
 LB            dimension of dense blocks composing A.
 B()           rectangular array with first dimension LDB.
 LDB           leading dimension of B
 BETA          Scalar parameter
 C()           rectangular array with first dimension LDC.
 LDC           leading dimension of C
 WORK()        scratch array of length LWORK.  
               On exit, if LWORK= -1, WORK(1) returns the optimum size
               of LWORK.

 LWORK         length of WORK array. LWORK should be at least
               MB*LB.

               For good performance, LWORK should generally be larger. 
               For optimum performance on multiple processors, LWORK 
               >=MB*LB*N_CPUS where N_CPUS is the maximum number of 
               processors available to the program.
               If LWORK=0, the routine is to allocate workspace needed.

               If LWORK = -1, then a workspace query is assumed; the
               routine only calculates the optimum size of the WORK
               array, returns this value as the first entry of the WORK
               array, and no error message related to LWORK is issued
               by XERBLA.

NOTES/BUGS

1. No test for singularity or near-singularity is included in this routine. Such tests must be performed before calling this routine.

2. It is known that there exits another representation of the block sparse row format (see for example Y.Saad, ``Iterative Methods for Sparse Linear Systems'', WPS, 1996). Its data structure consists of three array instead of the four used in the current implementation. The main difference is that only one array, IA, containing the pointers to the beginning of each block row in the arrays VAL and BINDX is used instead of two arrays BPNTRB and BPNTRE. To use the routine with this kind of block sparse row format the following calling sequence should be used

  CALL SBSRSM( TRANSA, MB, N, UNITD, DV, ALPHA, DESCRA,
 *           VAL, BINDX, IA, IA(2), LB,
 *           B, LDB, BETA, C, LDC, WORK, LWORK )
