The NHSE is a distributed collection of software, documents, data, and information of interest to the high performance and parallel computing community.

The NHSE seeks to actively promote software sharing and reuse within and across the HPCC agency programs on a sustainable basis. The NHSE facilitates the development of discipline-oriented software and document repositories and promotes contributions and use via the World Wide Web. Existing NHSE repositories include HPC-Netlib, PTlib. HPC-Netlib is the high performance branch of the Netlib mathematical software repository and PTlib is the Parallel Tools software repository. Development of the NHSE was carried out by the Center for Research on Parallel Computation (CRPC) from 1994 until 1999. This website is now administrated soley by the NHSE technical team at the University of Tennessee.

The NHSE Technical Team has developed a software toolkit for setting up and maintaining a software repository. This toolkit, called Repository in a Box (RIB), enables organizations to develop and administrate their own software repositories. RIB is a standards-based software package that utilizes the Basic Interoperability Data Model (BIDM), which is an IEEE standard for software cataloging. Because RIB utilizes the BIDM, repositories created using the RIB software can interoperate with other NHSE repositories such as those listed above.
