Abstract
This document describes tao4py, a Python port to the TAO libraries.
TAO is a software package for the parallel solution of large-scale optimization problems.
TAO relies on PETSc for basic functionality such as the representation of matrices and vectors, and the solution of linear systems of equations. Thus, tao4py must be used together with its companion petsc4py.
