The NAS Systems Division develops and adapts software programs to complement and enhance the work performed on its supercomputers, including software for systems support, monitoring systems, security, and scientific visualization. Some of this software can be downloaded for use on your own system.
Certain software packages are "restricted" - the software can only be used in the U.S. by the requestor and cannot be disclosed to third parties. Additionally, users agree to assist NASA in the development of the code by reporting problems encountered or any modifications made to the code. You must sign and return an agreement form before the download will be approved.
Further, some restricted software titles have been registered though Ames Research Center's Commercial Technology Office. These packages are distributed for "evaluation only" for a maximum of six months, after which the software and related material must be returned.
