<P>
The array descriptor <B>DESC_</B>
whose type is defined as 
<B>DESC_(DTYPE_)=501</B><A NAME="3185">&#160;</A>,
is an integer array of length 7.
This descriptor type is used in
the ScaLAPACK narrow band routines
and tridiagonal routines to specify
a block-column distribution of a 
global array over a one-dimensional
process grid.  In the general and
symmetric positive definite banded
and tridiagonal routines, a 
one-dimensional block-column 
distribution is specified for
the coefficient matrix<A NAME="3186">&#160;</A>.
The matrix of right-hand-side
vectors must be distributed 
over a one-dimensional process
grid using a block-row data
distribution.  Refer to 
section&nbsp;<A HREF="node82.html#sec1dbd">4.4.1</A>
for further details on block
data distribution.
<P>
Let us assume, for example,
that we have an array descriptor
<I>DESCA</I> for a block-column 
distributed array <I>A</I>.  For
readability of the code, we
have associated symbolic names
with the descriptor entries.
As previously mentioned, the
notations x_ used in the 
entries of the array descriptor
denote the attributes of a
global array.  For readability
of the code, we have associated
symbolic names for the descriptor
entries.  For example, N_ 
denotes the number of columns
and N_A specifically denotes
the number of columns in global
array <I>A</I>.

When <I>A</I> is symmetric positive

tridiagonal, LLD_A is not
