Povray-Persistence of Vision Raytracer, is a ray tracing program which generates images from a text-based scene description, and is available for a variety of computer platforms.
Bioblender-BioBlender is a software package built on the open-source 3D modeling software Blender. Biology works at nanoscale, with objects invisible to the human eye. With BioBlender it is possible to show some of the characters that populate our cells, based on scientific data and the highest standard of 3D manipulation.
Blender-is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software product used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D printed models, and interactive 3D applications.

FFTW- The Fastest Fourier Transform in the West (FFTW) is a software library for computing discrete Fourier transforms (DFTs) developed by Matteo Frigo and Steven G. Johnson at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. FFTW is known as the fastest free software implementation of the Fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. It can compute transforms of real and complex-valued arrays of arbitrary size and dimension in O(n log n) time.
HDF5- Hierarchical Data Format is the name of a set of file formats and libraries designed to store and organize large amounts of numerical data.
