You are provided with the abstract of a scientific paper and the abstracts of the papers it references. Your task is to write a Related Work section for the main paper. This section should concisely summarize and integrate the key points from the cited abstracts, reflecting how they relate to the main paper's contributions and context. In your summary, use numerical citation markers like [1], [2], etc., to refer to the corresponding papers.

Main Abstract:
Interested in formalizing the generation of fast running code for linear algebra applications, the authors show how an index-free, calculational approach to matrix algebra can be developed by regarding matrices as morphisms of a category with biproducts. This shifts the traditional view of matrices as indexed structures to a type-level perspective analogous to that of the pointfree algebra of programming. The derivation of fusion, cancellation and abide laws from the biproduct equations makes it easy to calculate algorithms implementing matrix multiplication, the central operation of matrix algebra, ranging from its divide-and-conquer version to its vectorization implementation. From errant attempts to learn how particular products and coproducts emerge from biproducts, not only blocked matrix algebra is rediscovered but also a way of extending other operations (e.g. Gaussian elimination) blockwise, in a calculational style, is found. The prospect of building biproduct-based type checkers for computer algebra systems such as MatlabTM is also considered.

[1]: Sabadini, Walters and others have developed a categorical, machine based theory of concurrency in which there are four essential aspects: a distributive category of data-types; a bicategory Mach whose objects are data types, and whose arrows are input-output machines built from data types; a semantic category (or categories) Sem, suitable to contain the behaviors of machines, and a functor, “behavior”: Mach→Sem. Suitable operations on machines and semantics are found so that the behavior functor preserves these operations. Then, if each machine is decomposable into primitive machines using these operations, the behavior of a general machine is deducible from the behavior of its parts. The theory of non-deterministic finite state automata provides an example of the paradigm and also throws some light on the classical theory of finite state automata.
[1] define a generic notion of and give their semantics in terms of categories of matrices, under special (blocked) composition schemes. They make implicit use of what we have identified as the standard biproduct (enabling blocked matrix algebra) to formalize column and row-wise matrix join and fusion, but the emphasis is on iteration theories which matricial theories are a particular case of.
