  Description     : Efficient Java Matrix Library
 Efficient Java Matrix Library (EJML) is a linear algebra library for
 manipulating dense matrices. Its design goals are;
  1) to be as computationally and memory efficient as possible for both
     small and large matrices, and
  2) to be accessible to both novices and experts.
 These goals are accomplished by dynamically selecting the best
 algorithms to use at runtime, clean API, and multiple interfaces.
 .
 EJML has three distinct ways to interact with it:
  1) procedural,
  2) SimpleMatrix, and
  3) Equations.
 Procedure provides all capabilities of EJML and almost complete control
 over memory creation, speed, and specific algorithms. SimpleMatrix
 provides a simplified subset of the core capabilities in an easy to use
 flow styled object-oriented API, inspired by Jama. Equations is a
 symbolic interface, similar in spirit to Matlab and other CAS, that
 provides a compact way of writing equations.


I need this package as a precondition for a Debian Med package
(git://anonscm.debian.org/debian-med/qualimap.git) and it might be
useful in other scientific applications as well.  It will be maintained
in the Debian Java team due to its expertise in Java libraries at
