                      <p>LiberTEM is an open source platform for high-throughput
                      distributed processing of large-scale binary data sets using

                      href='https://libertem.github.io/LiberTEM/architecture.html'>designed
                      for high throughput and scalability</a> on PCs, single
                      server nodes, clusters and cloud services. On clusters it
                      can use fast distributed local storage on high-performance
                      SSDs. That way it achieves <a

                      <p>LiberTEM is supported on Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
                      Other platforms that allow installation of Python 3 and the
                      required packages will likely work as well. The GUI is

                      single-node system for a local user is thoroughly tested and
                      can be considered stable. Deployment on a cluster is
                      experimental and still requires some additional work, see <a
