Translators and software development tools

These comprise software used for creating, tuning, debugging and optimizing programs. They mainly include the following items:

  • • C/C++ and Fortran compilers: GNU, Portland Group, Intel, IBM XLC and XLF
  • Java compilers: GNU, SUN Microsystems
  • Intel Cluster Toolkit tuning tools
  • algorithm development: Matlab + Simulink

Other tools are represented by support libraries for the communication of simultaneous operations. These are especially:

  • libraries for MPI communication over IP/Ethernet and Infiniband networks: OpenMPI, MVAPICH, MVAPICH-2, Intel MPI
  • libraries for PVM communication over IP/Ethernet and Myrinet networks: PVM, PVM-GM

Support libraries for writing own programs:

  • analysis and solving of linear equations, systems of linear equations and other linear algebra tasks: LINPACK, LAPACK, Intel MKL, AMD CML
  • paralysis in differential equation systems solving: PETSc
