VASP is a commercial software which can only be licensed to groups that are hired by a single legal entity, which is incompatible with the way the Compute Canada Federation operates. We have tried to negotiate an agreement with the licensor which would let us install the software on our infrastructure, but without success. For that reason, VASP is not available on our infrastructure, and users must install the software themselves. Please read the terms of your own license, as you are likely subject to the same restriction. This limits the support we are allowed to offer to users who need help installing the software. Please see below for instructions on installing the software. | VASP is a commercial software which can only be licensed to groups that are hired by a single legal entity, which is incompatible with the way the Compute Canada Federation operates.

Simon Fraser University and the University of Waterloo own [[Cedar]] and [[Graham]], and have a license with VASP. Some of their employees are therefore allowed to access and install specific versions of VASP on those clusters and provide limited support. | Simon Fraser University and the University of Waterloo own [[Cedar]] and [[Graham]], and have a license with VASP.
