Technology partners are leading academic
institutions, and software, hardware, or service providers who
Visual Numerics works closely with to serve current demands and
future initiatives for the high performance computing market.
 Absoft Corporation
Absoft is a global provider of software
development tools needed to solve today's complex computational
problems. Absoft introduced the first commercial 32-bit Fortran
compilers for Macintosh, Windows-NT, Linux and High Performance
Computing (HPC) environments, and leads the industry with the
recently announced HPC Software Developers' Kit.
The Absoft-Visual Numerics partnership focuses on
high-performance numerical analysis libraries combined with Absoft
compiler technology. Absoft is currently offering the IMSL™ Fortran
Numerical Library 5.0 as part of a bundle with its Pro Fortran
compilers for Windows and Mac OS X. This partnership allows Fortran
application developers to take advantage of robust mathematical and
statistical algorithms optimized for Absoft's compiler technology to
build high-performance applications on Microsoft Windows-based
systems and Mac OS X-based systems.
 ASPEED Software
ASPEED Software offers the industry's leading
solution for quickly accelerating applications and ensuring ongoing
dynamic optimization and scalability to exploit the underlying grid,
cluster, multi-CPU, and multi-core configurations. ASPEED and Visual
Numerics have a strategic alliance to work as business and
technology partners.
 ClearSpeed Technology
ClearSpeed Technology is a semiconductor company
that develops massively parallel coprocessors and accelerator boards
delivering unmatched performance per watt for high performance
computing applications on industry standard systems. ClearSpeed has
offices in San Jose, California and Bristol, UK and has over 50
patents granted with additional pending.
The ClearSpeed and Visual Numerics partnership
focuses on offering developers the latest IMSL Numerical Libraries
accelerated by the ClearSpeed Technology’s ClearSpeed Advance X620
and ClearSpeed Advance e620 accelerator boards. The ClearSpeed
accelerator boards are designed for use in server and workstation
systems based on 32 bit and 64 bit x86 compatible architectures.
They deliver more than 66 GFLOPS of sustained double precision
matrix multiply (DGEMM) performance while averaging only 25 watts
power consumption.
 Cornell
Theory Center (CTC)
CTC is a high-performance computing and
interdisciplinary research center located on the Ithaca campus of
Cornell University. Scientific and engineering projects supported by
CTC represent a vast variety of disciplines.
By joining Visual Numerics' world-class IMSL
Numerical Libraries with CTC's high-performance computing
research-based services, Visual Numerics and CTC will address
real-world computing problems in a number of disciplines, including
behavioral and social sciences, medical sciences, engineering,
computer science and mathematics, and a wide range of business
applications.
 Digipede Technologies
The Digipede Network is a distributed computing
solution that delivers dramatically improved performance for
real-world business and scientific applications. Built entirely on
the .NET platform, it is radically easier buy, install, learn, and
use than other grid computing solutions. The Digipede Network
features patent-pending technology to provide automatic CPU
load-balancing and guaranteed quality of service, making it an ideal
solution for scaling web services or any SOA.
The Digipede-Visual Numerics partnership focuses
on bringing the power of grid computing to developers using the IMSL
C# Numerical Library. Using the Digipede Framework and the IMSL C#
Numerical Library together, .NET developers can build scalable,
high-performance, distributed applications in the familiar Visual
Studio environment.

Intel
As the world's largest chip maker, and a leading
manufacturer of computer, networking and communications products,
Intel supplies the computing and communications industries with
chips, boards, systems, and software building blocks that are the
"ingredients" of computers, servers and networking and
communications products.
The Intel-Visual Numerics partnership focuses on
offering Windows Fortran developers the latest IMSL™ Fortran Library
coupled with the latest Intel Windows Fortran compiler. Intel© is
currently offering the IMSL Fortran Library 5.0 as part of its Intel
Visual Fortran Compiler, Professional Edition, for Windows. Intel's
compiler technology coupled with Visual Numerics' advanced
mathematical and statistical algorithms deliver an outstanding
combination of development capabilities for Fortran programmers in
industry, academia and research.
 PDE2D
PDE2D solves quite general
nonlinear, time-dependent, steady-state and eigenvalue systems of
partial differential equations, in 1D intervals, general 2D regions
and a wide range of simple 3D regions.
PDE2D features an interactive
user interface, which makes it exceptionally easy to use, and
extensive graphical output capabilities. A Galerkin finite element
method, with isoparametric triangular elements of up to 4th degree,
is used for the 2D problem, and a collocation finite element method,
with cubic Hermite basis functions, is used for 3D problems. For 1D
and 2D problems, both Galerkin and collocation algorithms are
available. Adaptive refinement and grading of the triangular mesh
are available for 2D problems.
 The
Portland Group
Download the product
sheet that describes the IMSL Fortran Library for Microsoft
Windows and PGI Compilers.
The Portland Group (PGI), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of STMicroelectronics, is the premier supplier of
high-performance Fortran, C, and C++ compilers and tools for
multi-core x64 and x86 processor-based workstations, servers, and
clusters. PGI products support Linux, Mac OS X and Microsoft
Windows.
The Portland Group and Visual Numerics have teamed
to offer a version of the high-performance IMSL Fortran Numerical
Library for Windows compatible with PGI compilers. Now Fortran
application developers can leverage the robust mathematical and
statistical algorithms of the IMSL Fortran Library with the code
optimization capabilities of PGI compilers to build high-performance
applications on Microsoft Windows-based systems.
PGI offers single-user 64-bit and 32-bit versions
of the IMSL Fortran Numerical Library 6.0 for Windows, Windows
Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA), and a 32-bit version
for Windows Services for UNIX (SFU). Multi-user versions are
available from Visual Numerics.
