Furthermore, the GNU compiler suite is available in different versions on all HPC systems of KIT. With the command

The GNU compiler suite is licensed under the GNU General Public License and is therefore freely available (without license file). For the two compiler suites of Intel and PGI there are several licenses available, which can be accessed by all KIT employees via a license server of the SCC. This means that all KIT employees can install the Intel or PGI compiler suite locally and do not need their own licenses! For all KIT employees the use of the Intel and PGI compiler suites is free of charge! For the technical implementation of the access to the license server of the SCC please read the file Readme in the respective directory of the FTP server of the SCC or contact Mr. Hartmut Häfner of the SCC.
