The HPC Clusters have two suites of compilers available for users:
- GCC – These are the standard, free compilers available on Linux servers as standard
- Intel – These are commercial compilers available from Intel
Both of these suites of compilers are available in a number of versions, in order to allow backward compatibility as well as providing the latest versions.
As well as compilers for the standard languages C, C++ and Fortran, software modules containing Python v3 and MatLab are also available.
A number of software libraries are also provided including the two most common MPI implementations – MVAPICH2 (a flavour of MPICH) and Open-MPI.
For the complete list of available compilers and libraries, please visit the Available Software page.
