Prime95 is a software program that is used to perform stress tests on a computer's central processin (more)g unit (CPU) and memory to determine if they are functioning properly. It is primarily used by computer enthusiasts and hardware manufacturers to test the stability and reliability of a system by subjecting it to a high level of stress. Prime95 includes a feature called torture test, which puts the CPU and memory through a series of intensive calculations in order to determine if they are stable and can operate without errors. The program can be configured to test for a specific amount of time or until an error is encountered. Prime95 is primarily used to test the stability of a computer's hardware and ensure that it is running at its optimal performance. It is also often used to troubleshoot issues with a system's hardware or to test the performance of a system before overclocking it. Operating system: Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD License: Freeware

SAS (Statistical Analysis System) is a software suite that is widely used for statistical analysis,  (more)data management, and business intelligence. It is a powerful and flexible tool that is used by organizations in a variety of industries, including finance, healthcare, and government. SAS includes a range of software products that are designed to support data management, statistical analysis, and business intelligence. Some of the key components of SAS include: SAS Enterprise Guide: a graphical user interface that allows users to access and analyze data, create reports, and build data models. SAS Studio: a web-based interface for accessing and working with SAS data, analytics, and reporting tools. SAS Visual Analytics: a tool for creating interactive data visualizations and reports. SAS Enterprise Miner: a tool for data mining and predictive analytics. SAS is known for its powerful and comprehensive set of tools for data analysis and business intelligence, and it is widely used in a variety of industries and applications. It is a popular choice for organizations that need to analyze and understand large and complex datasets, and it is often used in conjunction with other data analysis and visualization tools. Operating system: Windows, IBM mainframe, Unix/Linux, OpenVMS Alpha License: Proprietary

Einstein@Home is a distributed computing project that uses idle computer time to search for gravitat (more)ional waves and other phenomena in data collected by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). It is a volunteer computing project that relies on the contributions of individuals around the world who donate their idle computer time to help analyze the data. Einstein@Home is named after Albert Einstein, whose theory of general relativity predicted the existence of gravitational waves. These waves are thought to be ripples in the fabric of space-time that are created by the acceleration of massive objects, such as black holes and neutron stars. The detection of gravitational waves is a major milestone in the field of physics, as it provides a new way to study the universe and test the predictions of Einstein's theory. Einstein@Home is managed by a team of scientists and researchers from institutions around the world, and it is supported by a number of organizations, including the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics. The project is open to anyone who is interested in contributing their idle computer time to the search for gravitational waves. Operating system: Cross-platform License: GPL-2.0-or-later

RasMol is a computer program that is used to visualize and manipulate molecular structures. It is a  (more)widely used tool in the field of chemistry, and it is particularly useful for studying the structure and properties of proteins and other biological molecules. RasMol allows users to view and analyze the three-dimensional structure of molecules, and it provides a number of features that make it easy to manipulate and analyze the data. Users can rotate and zoom in on molecules, change the display style, and apply various coloring schemes to highlight specific features of the molecule. They can also use RasMol to measure distances, angles, and other structural properties of the molecule. RasMol is available as a free, open-source program, and it is widely used in academia, research, and industry. It is compatible with a number of operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. Operating system: Unix, Windows License: GPL
