Allegro Software Catalogue
This is a catalogue of ALMA-related software that may be useful in your work. Some of these software is currently installed on our computing facilities at Allegro. If you would like any piece of software on this list to be prioritised for installation or you would like another piece of software to be installed please contact us at alma@strw.leidenunv.nl.
Software statuses at Allegro
For each piece of software in the catalogue, a descriptor of the current status of how recently the software has been reported as working at Allegro is given in the “Status” column.
- Working recently at allegro
- Working (>1 year ago) at allegro
- Worked previously at allegro
- Not working or untested at allegro
Software with a status further down this list is less likely to be working on the allegro machines. Please contact alma@strw.leidenunv.nl if you find that any software doesn't work and we will be happy to help you with it.
Installed software
This is a searchable and sortable table of installed software. Click on the arrows next to column titles to sort by that column. You can also use the search box to filter the content, for example try searching Working recently to see only working software that is listed as working recently. Software is also tagged with a number of properties that you can search by, for example try searching #visualisation to see software that can be used for visualisation.
The full list of tags is: #analysis, #archive, #calibration, #CASA, #datacubes, #GILDAS, #GPU_computing, #modelling, #moments, #observing, #polarisation, #python, #simulation, #visibilities, #visualisation, #visualization, #VLBI
