Octave has neither as far as I'm aware.

Your options are:
  - use the various octave dll's

  - make a socket connection as per Paul Kienzle's suggestion

  - connect via stdin/stdout pipes. For an example of how to do
     this, look at my perl module Inline::Octave, or look at my
     article "Perl and inline octave" in the April Perl journal.
