| PackageDescription | user-defined software stacks (UDSS) for HPC centers (test suite)
Charliecloud provides user-defined software stacks (UDSS) (aka containers)
for high-performance computing (HPC) centers. This "bring your own software
stack" functionality addresses needs such as: software dependencies that are
numerous, complex, unusual, differently configured, or simply newer/older
than what the center provides; build-time requirements unavailable within
the center, such as relatively unfettered internet access; validated
software stacks and configuration to meet the standards of a particular
field of inquiry; portability of environments between resources, including
workstations and other test and development system not managed by the
center; consistent environments, even archivally so, that can be easily,
reliabily, and verifiably reproduced in the future; and/or usability and
comprehensibility.
