+This is an implementation of a VSIP Library (Vector/Signal/Image
+Processing Library) as defined by the VSIPL Forum for a CORE profile.
+
+The TASP_VSIPL library is an effort to produce a VSIPL library
+suitable for demonstration and early development and testing of VSIPL
+code and ideas.
+
+The Tactical Advanced Signal Processing Common Operating Environment
+(TASP COE) effort is striving to produce a common operating
+environment for signal processing throughout the Navy and DOD for the
+COTS environment. VSIPL is thought by TASP to have a good chance of
+becoming a standard signal processing library for many vendors who
+supply DOD high performance computing products. For this reason TASP
+is supporting the VSIPL effort.
+
+This is the TASP VSIPL Core Plus implementation of VSIPL. Core Plus
+includes all the functionality of the core profile plus most floating
+point Vector and Elementwise Operations not required by the VSIPL Core
+profile. The additional functions include such things as matrix
+elementwise add and multiply.
+
+The TASP VSIPL code is required to be freely available for any
+use.
