Various scientific applications are used on CCB clusters. In general, Research Groups are responsible for knowing their software. In many cases, ChemIT staff can assist researchers, but cannot take responsibility or expend unlimited effort.


This page refers only to Applications, in the "stack" of all software needed to run a cluster. See relevant "Roles and responsibilities" page for stack and all the other software ChemIT is responsible for installing, configuring, debugging, and otherwise maintaining.

Cluster software supported by ChemIT

ChemIT primarily responsible for installation and  configuration of these software applications.

Research group members are still responsible for learning how to use the software, ensuring their own run files are correct, and any associated de-bugging of their files.

Gaussian

Collum, Hoffmann, Scheraga

Linux and Mac (64-bit).versions are source code which ChemIT must compile using expensive PGI compiler (below).
(N.B. Executable provided to CCB of Windows versions 32- and 64-bit.)

Orca

Collum, Hoffmann, Lancaster
Scheraga?

 

SBGrid setup

Crane

 

gromacs

Crane (Lancaster), Lancaster, Scheraga, Widom

 

Compiler: Intel

Scheraga
Hoffmann borrowing it, a bit.

Ananth (at CAC cluster)

Compiler: GCC

 

 

Compiler: PGI

(Q: Installed on any cluster, or is compilation work done on a dedicated Linux workstation instead?)

Used by ChemIT since required to compile Gaussian.

YUM

 

(Yellow Dog) Update manager

Driver: CUDA
