Visual Numerics Updates IMSL C# and JMSL Numerical Libraries

By DE Editors

To satisfy growing customer demand for numerical application development technologies for .NET and Java, and for advanced charting and graph visualization, Visual Numerics, Inc. (Houston, TX) announced the availability of the IMSL C# Numerical Library version 5.0 and JMSL Numerical Library for Java Applications version 5.0.

These libraries now include enhanced algorithms for better performance, as well as new process control chart capabilities. The combination of these features is optimal for companies that are developing analytical applications in .NET and Java, and require highly accurate algorithms for quantitative analysis such as predictive modeling and quality control.

New features of IMSL C# 5.0 and JMSL 5.0 include enhanced performance, process control charts, sparse linear function, and a new 2D spline function.

The IMSL C# Numerical Library, which is written in 100 percent Visual C# .NET, eases and speeds programming, provides fully managed code, and ensures that programs written stay compliant and compatible with future applications. It contains algorithms that are the backbone of common analytics, such as profit maximization, product design optimization, supply chain efficiency optimization, and demand forecasting.

The JMSL Library is a collection of mathematical, statistical, financial, data mining and charting classes available in 100 percent Java. It is the only solution for Java programmers, which combines integrated charting capabilities with the reliable mathematical and statistical functionality of the industry-leading IMSL Numerical Library algorithms. The JMSL Library is platform independent, which makes it easy to embed in existing, standalone, or networked applications.

The IMSL C# Numerical Library 5.0 (starts at $995 for a node-locked development seat) and the JMSL Numerical Library for Java 5.0 (starts at $2895 for a floating development seat) are both available immediately.
