Now, as the year 2023 draws to a close, it is time to reflect upon the closest past. During the year 2023, we at Discoverer faced many challenging technical issues and took immediate action when it was needed, sometimes sacrificing our personal and family spare time to do so. However, ultimately, we accomplished all of our tasks. The cluster performs satisfactorily, and the majority of customers are content with the efficiency of the computational resources. Santa Claus brought us many…

It is available in several variants, depending on the compiler used to compile the code, to support the benchmarking and development projects. Intel oneAPI and NVIDIA HPC SDK specific libraries are statically compiled into libz.so. Both AMD AOCC and LLVM build infrastructure LLVM builds are available. GCC build is also installed and…

We thoroughly examined the hosted LLVM compiler collections by employing the clang and clang++ compilers to compile C and C++ code projects like GROMACS and NAMD.

The latest version of Intel oneAPI – 2024.0.0 – is now available in Discoverers open-source software repository. One big change in the new version is that the classic Intel compilers are no longer available. As of version 2024.0, they have been excluded from the bundle. The users have to load one of the available pre-2024.0 versions if they need access to any of the classic compilers. The old versions of Intel oneAPI (≤2023.2) that include the classic compilers will remain…
