O2 uses the Lmod system of environment modules; this system allows you to manage your environment to access separate applications that are installed on O2. Lmod also automatically tracks dependencies, so you do not need to worry about accidentally running a program in the wrong environment or against the wrong libraries. This is also how Lmod organizes the applications.

These modules are modules that have not been compiled (e.g. are binaries downloaded from the source) that do not belong in Core. This includes programs such as bioinformatics tools that do not provide source code, e.g. Java programs. These tools can generally be loaded and executed regardless of the state of your environment.
Using software provided by BioGrids
Research Computing also offers a module ( biogrids/latest) that provides access to completely independent sets of over 400 pieces of biomedical software relative to the usual modules offered on O2. All In order to access this suite, simply run module load biogrids/latest. For more information, please refer to our Using Software Provided by BioGrids page.
Compiler
These modules are modules that were compiled against a compiler that was in the Core category. For example, if module A was compiled against GCC 6.2.0, it would be categorized under the gcc/6.2.0 hierarchy. In order to view module A, you need gcc/6.2.0 to be loaded in your environment.
