Green computing
Green Algorithms is an useful website which estimates the carbon footprint based on runtime, number of GPU & CPUs, memory and location. It also provides guidance on how to minimise carbon usage.
MRC/CCP4 file format
We have agreed an update to the MRC/CCP4 format, called MRC2014. Details of the changes have been published in Cheng et al. (2015) “MRC2014: Extensions to the MRC format header for electron cryo-microscopy and tomography” J. Struct. Biol. 192, 146-150. See separate page for further details.
Linux help
A quick guide to basic Linux commands. Also a slightly longer guide to Linux and vi.
