HOWTO: Install Python packages from source

ARM HPC tools

ARM HPC tools analyze how HPC software runs. It consists of three applications, ARM DDT, ARM Performance Reports and ARM MAP: 

  • ARM DDT: graphical debugger for HPC applications.
  • ARM MAP: HPC application profiler with easy-to-use GUI environment.
  • ARM Performance Reports: simple tool to generate a single-page HTML or plain text report that presents overall performance characteristics of HPC applications.

 

HOWTO: Locally Installing Software

Sometimes the best way to get access to a piece of software on the HPC systems is to install it yourself as a "local install". This document will walk you through the OSC-recommended procedure for maintaining local installs in your home directory or project space. The majority of this document describes the process of "manually" building and installing your software. We also show a partially automated approach through the use of a bash script in the Install Script section near the end.

BamTools

BamTools provides both a programmer's API and an end-user's toolkit for handling BAM files.

bam2fastq

bam2fastq is used to extract raw sequences (with qualities) from programs like SAMtools, Picard, and Bamtools.

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of bam2fastq are available on OSC clusters:

SRA Toolkit

The Sequence Read Archive (SRA Toolkit) stores raw sequence data from "next-generation" sequencing technologies including 454, IonTorrent, Illumina, SOLiD, Helicos and Complete Genomics. In addition to raw sequence data, SRA now stores alignment information in the form of read placements on a reference sequence. Use SRA Toolkit tools to directly operate on SRA runs.

Availability and Restrictions

The following versions of SRA Toolkit are available on OSC clusters:

Ncview

Ncview is a visual browser for netCDF format files. Typically you would use ncview to get a quick and easy, push-button look at your netCDF files. You can view simple movies of the data, view along various dimensions, take a look at the actual data values, change color maps, invert the data, etc.

Availability and Restrictions

Versions

The following versions of Ncview are available on OSC clusters:

VCFtools

VCFtools is a program package designed for working with VCF files, such as those generated by the 1000 Genomes Project. The aim of VCFtools is to provide easily accessible methods for working with complex genetic variation data in the form of VCF files.

Availability and Restrictions

The following versions of VCFtools are available on OSC clusters:
