概要
MOE System requirements
Supported Platform
MOE 2024.06 is compatible with the following hardware and OS.
Only 64bit OS is supported. Please be sure to check the supported OS.
| Architecture | Operating system (OS) | Graphics |
|---|---|---|
| Intel | Windows 10/11 64bit | OpenGL |
| Intel | Linux 64bit (RHEL 7, Ubuntu 12.04, Debian 8.0, Fedora 16, OpenSUSE 12.1 or later) | OpenGL, X11 |
| Intel | macOS 10.12 or later | OpenGL, X11 |
| Apple Silicon (M1 or later) | macOS 11 or later | OpenGL, X11 |
* License Manager is compatible with Linux with glibc version 2.14 or higher.
The following command can output the glibc version.
$ ls -l /lib/libc-*
* There is no difference in the number of licenses used, regardless of machine performance or OS.
* Molecular graphics and anaglyph display depends on the machine’s OpenGL environment (graphics card and driver).
Usage Mode of MOE
| name | Overview | Commentary |
| MOE | Graphic mode | MOE graphic (GUI) mode. It is used by general users or application developers. All MOE functions can be used. In addition, it is the mode with the best operability. |
| MOE / batch | Command mode | MOE non-graphic mode. It is used when executing a long-time calculation on the server machine. The calculation speed is about 10% faster than the graphic mode. MOE can be used by incorporating it into third-party products (e.g. KNIME). |
| MOE / web | Web server, SOAP server mode | MOE web server and SOAP server mode. It uses some MOE features from a web browser. It can use MOE features on MOE/web server with SOAP technology. |
| MOE / smp | Parallel computing mode | It can split large amounts of data into multiple machines in some applications. It is used when executing an application that supports parallel computing in MOE by parallel computing. MOE / smp can also be calculated in heteroclusters with different operating systems supported by MOE. |
License management
All MOE licenses are provided as floating licenses. The MOE license can be used on any hardware supported by MOE in the same way, so it works fine even in a network environment where workstations and PCs coexist.
Since the MOE license is managed by a token-based network floating license, it can be used from any hardware supported by MOE within the number of owned tokens.
The number of tokens required by MOE depends on the Usage Mode.
| Usage Mode | Number of tokens required |
| MOE (graphic mode) | 3 tokens |
| MOE / batch (command mode) | 1 token |
| MOE / web (Web server, SOAP server mode) | 1 token or more |
| MOE / smp (parallel computing mode) | 1 token x number of distributed processes (when using non-graphic mode) |
