Scalasca
Scalasca is a software tool that supports the performance optimization of parallel programs by measuring and analyzing their runtime behavior. The analysis identifies potential performance bottlenecks – in particular those concerning communication and synchronization – and offers guidance in exploring their causes.
Scalasca supports the performance optimization of simulation codes on a wide range of current HPC platforms. Its powerful analysis and intuitive result presentation guides the developer through the tuning process.
Scalasca targets mainly scientific and engineering applications based on the programming interfaces MPI and OpenMP, including hybrid applications based on a combination of the two. The tool has been specifically designed for use on large-scale systems including IBM Blue Gene and Cray XT, but is also well suited for small- and medium-scale HPC platforms.

All softwareArbor
Arbor is a high-performance library for computational neuroscience simulations with multi-compartment, morphologically-detailed cells, from single cell models to very large networks. Arbor is written from the ground up with many-cpu and gpu architectures in mind, to help neuroscientists effectively use contemporary and future HPC systems to meet their simulation needs. Arbor supports NVIDIA and AMD GPUs as well as explicit vectorization on CPUs from Intel (AVX, AVX2 and AVX512) and ARM (Neon and SVE). When coupled with low memory overheads, this makes Arbor an order of magnitude faster than the most widely-used comparable simulation software. Arbor is open source and openly developed, and we use development practices such as unit testing, continuous integration, and validation.

BioExcel Building Blocks
BioExcel Building Blocks Workflows is a collection of biomolecular workflows to explore the flexibility and dynamics of macromolecules, including signal transduction proteins or molecules related to the Central Nervous System. Molecular dynamics setup for protein and protein-ligand complexes are examples of workflows available as Jupyter Notebooks. The workflows are built using the BioBB software library, developed in the framework of the BioExcel Centre of Excellence. BioBBis a collection of Python wrappers on top of popular biomolecular simulation tools, offering a layer of interoperability between the wrapped tools, which make them compatible and prepared to be directly interconnected to build complex biomolecular workflows.
