53  This document is a guide of how to use the \escript software and  \escript is a python-based environment for implementing mathematical models, in particular those based on coupled, non-linear, time-dependent partial differential equations.
54  associated tools.  
55    It consists of four major components
56    \begin{itemize}
57    \item \escript core library
58    \item finite element solver \finley (which uses fast vendor-supplied solvers or our paso linear solver library)
59    \item the meshing interface \pycad
60    \item VTK visualization interface \pyvisi
61    \item model library modellib
62    \end{itemize}
63    The current version supports parallelization through both MPI for distributed memory and OpenMP for distributed shared memory.
