Applications, compilers and development tools
=============================================

**- Applications:** CESGA provides a wide variety of pre-built applications, optimized for Finisterrae III. The primary way these are provided in the session environment is through modules. Please use the command ``module spider`` to see the complete list of available applications or refer to the `Environmental modules <https://cesga-docs.gitlab.io/ft3-user-guide/env_modules.html>`_ section.

Applications are grouped into the following areas:

-  Comp: Compiler (key: **area_compiler**)
-  MPI: MPI library (key: **area_mpi**)
-  Bio: Bioinformatics (key: **area_bioinformatics**)
-  Chem: Chemistry and Materials (key: **area_chemistryandmaterials**)
-  Ed: Editor (key: **area_editor**)
-  ML: Machine Learning (key: **area_machinelearning**)
-  MPCFD: Multiphysics and CFD (key: **area_multiphysicsandcfd**)
-  Math: Math Library (key: **area_mathlibrary**)
-  Prof: Profiling (key: **area_profiling**)
-  ScA: Scientific Analysis (key: **area_scientificanalysis**)
-  Sim: Simulation (key: **area_simulation**)
-  Soft: Software Management (key: **area_softwaremanagement**)
-  Tool: Tool (key: **area_tools**)
-  VisF: Visualization and data formats (key: **area_visualizationanddataformats**)

Using the key associated with each area, it is possible to search for the applications grouped in it using the `key` option of the ``module`` command. The full list of applications available can be found at `Cesga website <https://www.cesga.es/en/infrastructures/applications/>`_ or at `available modules <https://cesga-docs.gitlab.io/ft3-user-guide/env_modules.html#id1>`_ section.

**- Compilers:** Initially the recommended compilers for the C, C++, and Fortran languages are the included on the `Intel® oneAPI HPC toolbox 2021.3 <https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/hpc-toolkit.html>`_. This suite will be updated as new versions will be released. Also GNU compilers are available in different versions.

**- MPI:** Intel MPI is included in the `Intel® oneAPI HPC toolbox 2021.3 <https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/hpc-toolkit.html>`_. Different OpenMPI versions (started from 4.0.5 version) are also available.
