HPC Software packages on W&M/VIMS clusters
The Research Computing staff installs a number of scientific/computational packages on our HPC clusters. All software is either in a users default path or access via an environment modules. Since the hardware/software refresh in summer 2024 the following packages should be available on all clusters (both main-campus and VIMS). Please send email to [[w|hpc-help@wm.edu]] for any requests to add more standard packages to the cluster.
