Introduction
STATA comprises a complete software package, offering statistical tools for data analysis, data management and graphics. On the local HPC System we offer a multiprocessor variant of STATA/MP 13, licensed for up to 12 cores. The license allows up to 5 users to work with STATA at the same time. STATA/MP uses the paradigm of symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) to benefit from the parallel capabilities offered by many modern computers and HPC systems to speed up computations.
Installed version
The currently installed version of STATA is 13.0.
Using Stata on the HPC cluster
Like every module on the cluster, STATA can be loaded by typing
module load stata
Then you can find the following STATA variants in your user environment:
- stata: a version of STATA that handles small datasets
- stata-se: a version of STATA for large datasets
- stata-mp: a fast version of STATA for multicore/multiprocessor machines
More details on the different version can be found here
