Software

Nextflow

Nextflow is a workflow system for creating scalable, portable, and reproducible workflows. Nextflow is based on the dataflow programming model which simplifies complex distributed pipelines.

Nodejs

Nodejs is used to create server-side web applications, and it is perfect for data-intensive applications since it uses an asynchronous, event-driven model

Mathematica

Mathematica is a mathematical computation program. It is capable in many areas of technical computing including but not limited to neural networks, machine learning, image processing, geometry, data science and visualizations.

CIAO

CIAO (also known as Chandra Interactive Analysis of Observations) is a X-Ray telescope analysis software package for astronomical observation. CIAO focuses on the Chandra X-ray observatory. It contains a toolset used to analyze fits files and is commonly used in conjuction with DS9 and Sherpa, and focuses on data flexibility. 

DS9

SAOImageDS9 is a astronomical imaging and data visualization application. DS9 provides support for FITS images, binary tables, multiple frame buffers, region manipulation, and colormaps display options

Availability and Restrictions

The following versions of DS9 are available on OSC clusters:

WCStools

WCStools is a program package designed for working with Images and the World Coordinate System. The aim of WCStools is to provide methods for relating pixels taken common astronomical images to sky coordinates.

Availability and Restrictions

The following versions of WCStools are available on OSC clusters:

Cell Ranger

Cell Ranger is a cell analysis library for generate feature-barcode matrices, perform Analysis for RNA samples. Cell Ranger works in pipelines for it's RNA  sequencing analysis which allows it to: process raw sequencing output, read alignment, generate gene-cell matrices, and can perform downstream analyses such as clustering and gene expression analysis.

Unblur

Unblur is used to align the frames of movies recorded on an electron microscope to reduce image blurrig due to beam-induced motion. It reads stacks of movies that are stored in MRC/CCP4 format. Unblur generates frame sums that can be used in subsequent image processing steps and optionally applies an exposure-dependent filter to maximize the signal at all resolutions in the frame averages. Movie frame sums can also be calculated using Summovie, which uses the alignment resuls from a prior run of Unblur.
