Environment Modules

The cluster uses Environment Modules ('Modules' for short). This system lets users make quick and reversible changes to variables like PATH using simple commands. This makes it easy to install different versions of the same software on the cluster and switch between them, without conflicts.

Using modules is straightforward. Modules is also very useful for managing software you build yourself.
