This is the catalog for HPC applications on Carbon. Applications are often referred to as modules because they are managed using the Environment Modules package.

You, the user, must select ("load") the modules that you wish to use, possibly down to a specific version. An exception to this are a handful of basic modules that are pre-loaded when you log in.

You can access this catalog on Carbon itself using the following commands to show all available modules, one-line summaries, and longer descriptions (usually with copyrights and links), respectively:

module avail [name]
module whatis [name]
module help name
