                        Digital Extended Math Library (DXML)
                     Version 3.3A for Digital UNIX Run-Time Kit


                           Please Read Before Installation

                                    December 1996

          1  DXML Version 3.3A Run-Time Kit

          DXML Version 3.3A is identical to DXML Version 3.3 with one
          exception as follows. The installation scripts for the parallel 
          run time subset (XMRPLL330) has a too restrictive test that causes 
          the wrong version of the library to be installed on some newer, yet 
          to be released versions of Digital UNIX. The error causes the IVP to 
          fail and the library not to work. DXML Version 3.3A with subset
          number 331 (eg. XMRPLL331) fixes the problem.

          Version 3.3 of DXML has had the following changes made since the
          release of Version 3.2 in January 1996:

          o  Four random generator subprograms and two auxilary, input
             subprograms for parallel applications have been added to the
             DXML library.

          o  Two quick sort and two general-purpose sort subprograms have
             been added to the DXML library.

          The kit includes the following subsets:

          o  XMRLOA331 - serial library

          o  XMRPLL331 - parallel library

          These subsets replace the previous DXML run-time distribution
          kit.

          The following documentation is available on the CD-ROM distribu-
          tion in Bookreader format:

          o  Digital Extended Math Library for Digital UNIX Installation
             Guide

          The documentation kit is also available in hardcopy format from
          Digital. The order number is QA-MUYAA-GZ.

          DXML Version 3.3 is also available as an individual product
          option. The order number is QA-MUYAA-H8.

          2  Disk Space Requirements

          You need approximately 55 megabytes of disk space to install the
          two DXML subsets. After installation, the disk space require-
          ments are as follows:

          o  Serial - 9 megabytes

          o  Parallel library - 9 megabytes

          changes, and other relevant information. After installation,
          the online release notes can be found at /usr/opt/XMRLOA331/docs
