AFNI (Analysis of Functional Neuro Images) is a leading software suite of C, Python, and R programs and shell scripst primarily developed for the analysis and display of multiple MRI modalities: anatomical, functional MRI (FMRI) and diffusion wieghted (DW) data. It is freely available (both as open source code and as precompiled binaries) for research purposes.
The following versions are available on OSC clusters:
DSI Studio is a tractography software tool that maps brain connections and correlates findings with neuropsychological disorders. It is a collective implementation of several diffusion MRI methods, including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), generalized q-sampling imaging (GQI), q-space diffeomorphic reconstruction (QSDR), diffusion MRI connectometry, and generalized deterministic fiber tracking.
There are different ways to submit interactive jobs.
sinteractiveYou can use the custom tool sinteractive as:
| Use | Torque/Moab Command | Slurm Equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| Submit batch job | qsub <jobscript> |
sbatch <jobscript> |
| Submit interactive job | qsub -I [options] |

It is possible to utilize Cron and the OSCusage command to send regular usage reports via email
It is easy to create Cron jobs on the Cardinal and Pitzer clusters at OSC. Cron is a Linux utility which allows the user to schedule a command or script to run automatically at a specific date and time. A cron job is the task that is scheduled.
Shell scripts run as a cron job are usually used to update and modify files or databases; however, they can perform other tasks, for example a cron job can send an email notification.
Profile information can be changed by logging in with valid OSC credentials at MyOSC, navigating to the profile page by clicking the display name in the upper right corner of the page, and selecting Edit my profile.
Gaussian is a very popular general purpose electronic structure program. Recent versions can perform density functional theory, Hartree-Fock, Möller-Plesset, coupled-cluster, and configuration interaction calculations among others. Geometry optimizations, vibrational frequencies, magnetic properties, and solution modeling are available. It performs well as black-box software on closed-shell ground state systems.
The XDMoD tool at xdmod.osc.edu can be used to get an overview of how accurate the requested time of jobs are with the elapsed time of jobs.
To request an amount of time for a job, you can use the following header.
#SBATCH --time=xx:xx:xx
The elapsed time is how long the job ran for before completing. This can be obtained for completed jobs using the sacct command.
Gurobi is a mathematical optimization solver that supports a variety of programming and modeling languages.
The following versions of bedtools are available on OSC clusters:
