This extension provides various computational back ends, that can be used for numerical calculations. It includes settings for out-of-JVM memory usage, and provides simple tensor handling capabilities as currently needed by the Deep Learning and Image handling Extentions.

Currently supported back ends:
- CPU using OpenBlas (version 0.3.13-1.5.5)
- CPU using Intel's MKL (version: 2021.1-1.5.5, external installation of MKL necessary)
- GPU using Nvidia's CUDA (supported CUDA version: 11.2, supported cuDNN version: 8.1, external installation of CUDA and optional cuDNN necessary)

This extension is based on the ND4J library in version DL4J-M1.1
