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. It is not a superset of the standard 11i OE; however, it is a superset of the
Minimal Technical OE. Also, unlike the MinimalTechnical OE, the Technical Computing
