HP-UX 11i v1 Technical Computing Operating
Environment (TCOE)
Like the Minimal Technical Operating Environment, the Technical Computing
Operating Environment (TCOE) contains all the base functionality that is common to
the other four OEs, including the base 32/64-bit HP-UX Operating System, network
drivers, and other always-installed functionality. While it is not a superset of the
Foundation 11i OE, it is a superset of the Minimal Technical OE. Unlike the Minimal
Technical OE, however, the Technical Computing OE is available on both technical
servers and workstations.
In addition to the features found in the HP-UX 11i v1 Minimal Technical OE,
1
the
HP-UX 11i v1 Technical Computing Operating Environment includes these features:
• HP CIFS Client and HP CIFS Server (see page 120)
• High Performance Math Libraries (HP MLIB) (see page 161)
• HP 3D Technology for the Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) Platform (see page 162)
• HP Message-Passing Interface (MPI) (see page 163)
• HP-UX Web Server Suite (see page 125)
• Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) Kerberos (see page 134)
• Plug-In for the Java 2 Platform for Mozilla (see page 136)
High Performance Math Libraries (HP MLIB)
High Performance Math Libraries (HP MLIB) is HP's high performance mathematical
software product. HP MLIB contains the Linear Algebra Package (LAPACK) and the
Vector Library (VECLIB) subprograms, and with the September 2002 release,
ScaLAPACK and the Distributed SuperLU library. HP MLIB provides mathematical
software and computational kernels for engineering and scientific applications involving
linear equations, least squares, eigenvalue problems, and the singular value
decomposition.

December 2004
New features for Version 9.0 include the following:
• Vector Math (VMATH) is a library of vector math routines corresponding to many of
the widely used scalar math routines available with C, C++, and Fortran90.
• SOLVERS is a collection of direct sparse linear system solvers and graph
partitioning routines.
• Compaq Extended Math Library (CXML) is a collection of routines that performs
numerically intensive operations that occur frequently in engineering and scientific
computing, such as linear algebra and signal processing.
HP MLIB V9.0 is supported on PA-RISC 2.0 V11i or later and Itanium2 V1.6 or later.
