You can find scientific and technical software resulting from DOE-funded research at the Energy Science and Technology Software Center (ESTSC) website. Software packages in the collection can be used for a variety of applications, and represent the latest in Energy Department-sponsored software. In many cases, the packages are available in multiple platforms, such as PC, workstation, or supercomputer. Software is available on CD-ROM and includes supporting documentation, either in paper or electronic format. An online searchable catalog is available. The collection also contains selected software from the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

  Because of upgrades in technology, Science Accelerator now returns more results from each of the resources it searches, with the possibility of returning almost twice as many as before. While the pool of results is larger, those results are still ranked by relevancy to your search term(s). Plus, in returning these results, "exact phrase" search results are more precise because stemming of the terms in the "exact phrase" has been eliminated. Your search strategy, as well as other information, is now provided when the search results are printed, providing additional access to this information.  For more results plus greater precision, try Science Accelerator, a gateway to science information from the Department of Energy, including R&D results, project descriptions, accomplishments, and more.
