RELION

RELION (REgularised LIkelihood OptimisatioN) is a stand-alone computer program for the refinement of 3D reconstructions or 2D class averages in electron cryo-microscopy. 

LAPACK

LAPACK (Linear Algebra PACKage) provides routines for solving systems of simultaneous linear equations, least-squares solutions of linear systems of equations, eigenvalue problems, and singular value problems.

Availability and Restrictions

A highly optimized implementation of LAPACK is available on all OSC clusters as part of the Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL). We recommend that you use MKL rather than building LAPACK for yourself. MKL is available to all OSC users.

BLAS

The BLAS (Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms) are routines that provide standard building blocks for performing basic vector and matrix operations.

Availability and Restrictions

Access

A highly optimized implementation of the BLAS is available on all OSC clusters as part of the Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL). We recommend that you use MKL rather than building the BLAS for yourself. MKL is available to all OSC users.

FreeSurfer

FreeSurfer is a software package used to anaylze nueroimaging data.

Availability & Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of FreeSurfer are available on OSC clusters:

Julia

From julialang.org:

"Julia is a high-level, high-performance dynamic programming language for numerical computing. It provides a sophisticated compiler, distributed parallel execution, numerical accuracy, and an extensive mathematical function library. Julia’s Base library, largely written in Julia itself, also integrates mature, best-of-breed open source C and Fortran libraries for linear algebra, random number generation, signal processing, and string processing. In addition, the Julia developer community is contributing a number of external packages through Julia’s built-in package manager at a rapid pace. IJulia, a collaboration between the Jupyter and Julia communities, provides a powerful browser-based graphical notebook interface to Julia."

Software Refresh - February 2017

OSC is refreshing the software stack for Oakley and Ruby on February 22, 2017 (during the scheduled downtime). During the software refresh, some default versions are updated to be more up-to-date and some older versions are removed. Information about the old and new default versions, as well as all available versions of each software package will be included on the corresponding OSC software webpage. See https://www.osc.edu/supercomputing/software-list.

Run STAR-CCM+ to STAR-CCM+ Coupling

This documentation is to discuss how to run STAR-CCM+ to STAR-CCM+ Coupling simulation in batch job at OSC. The following example demonstrates the process of using STAR-CCM+ version 11.02.010 on Cardinal. Depending on the version of STAR-CCM+ and cluster you work on, there mighe be some differences from the example. Feel free to contact OSC Help if you have any questions. 

Darshan

Darshan is a lightweight "scalable HPC I/O characterization tool".  It is intended to profile I/O by emitting log files to a consistent log location for systems administrators, and also provides scripts to create summary PDFs to characterize I/O in MPI-based programs.

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of Darshan are available on OSC clusters:

Spark

Apache Spark is an open source cluster-computing framework originally developed in the AMPLab at University of California, Berkeley but was later donated to the Apache Software Foundation where it remains today. In contrast to Hadoop's disk-based analytics paradigm, Spark has multi-stage in-memory analytics. Spark can run programs up-to 100x faster than Hadoop’s MapReduce in memory or 10x faster on disk. Spark support applications written in python, java, scala and R.
