*******************************************************************
I            LONI QB2--Nvidia GPU

Software
    Newly installed packages
       Key: bbcp/15.02.03
       Description: BBCP is an alternative to Gridftp when transferring large amounts of data, capable of breaking up your transfer into multiple simultaneous transferring streams, thereby transferring data much faster than single-streaming utilities such as SCP and SFTP.

       Key: gaussian/g09-d01
       Description: Gaussian 09 is the latest in the Gaussian series of programs. It provides state-of-the-art capabilities for electronic structure modeling

        Key: wq/264
        Description: WQ (WorkQueuing) provides a task dispatcher-worker service. To use, you'll need the PBS template ($WQ_PBS_TEMPLATE). Just make a copy and edit to fit your application needs. A sample task script ($WQ_EXAMPLE_TASK) and user documentation ($WQ_DOC) are also available.

     Updated packages
        Key: gromacs/5.0.7/CUDA-65-INTEL-140-MVAPICH
        Description: GROMACS (GROningen MAchine for Chemical Simulations) is a versatile package to perform molecular dynamics.

III        LSU HPC SuperMIC--Intel Xeon Phi

Software
     Newly installed packages
        Key: bbcp/15.02.03
        Description: BBCP is an alternative to Gridftp when transferring large amounts of data, capable of breaking up your transfer into multiple simultaneous transferring streams, thereby transferring data much faster than single-streaming utilities such as SCP and SFTP.

        Key: wq/264
        Description: WQ is a support tool that creates supports a dispatcher/worker model of distributed computing. Serial, multi-thread OpenMP, and small multi-process MPI are supported. Tasks are defined by input file names, or other command line strings, contained in an input file - one line per task.

     Updated packages
        Key: pgi/15.10
        Description: The Portland Group compilers for C, C++ and Fortran. It also supports OpenACC.
