| Your code | Your home or project directory | A custom Python script | The Research Software Engineering team can offer basic support and troubleshooting with your own HPC code to get it working or provide advice on potential compatibility issues. If the complexity of the support is deemed to be beyond standard, or the software is of sufficient complexity, you may be advised to engage dedicated RSE software developers at a chargeable day rate. Please use the [[https://nuservice.ncl.ac.uk|IT Service ticket system]] to request assistance. |
| 3rd Party code | Your home or project directory | A Python library downloaded from Github | The Research Software Engineering team can offer basic support and troubleshooting in the download, compilation and configuration of software included in this category.

If the complexity of the support is deemed to be beyond standard, or the software is of sufficient complexity, you may be advised to engage dedicated RSE software developers at a chargeable day rate. |
| Loaded via Linux //module// | Centrally installed | GCC, Matlab or Conda | Software is packaged and basic operation is tested by our HPC support vendor. Help in the //operation// of the software is not covered by our vendor. RSE may be able to provide basic guidance via the normal [[https://nuservice.ncl.ac.uk|IT Service ticket system]], but may not be able to assist with every possible application. |
