LBIE (Level Set Boundary-Interior-Exterior) is the multi-purpose meshing tool created at CVC which builds quality surface and volumetric mesh conforming to any level set from an imaging data. Variety of output mesh formats are
- Triangle Mesh for the Level-Set and Tetrahedral Mesh for the interior and exterior to the level set.
- Quadrilateral Mesh for the Level-Set and Hexahedral Mesh for the interior and exterior to the level set.
- Triangle-Tet or Quad-Hex combination for interval volumes defined by two level sets.

BioChemSIM is a package that can be used for analysis of differential and integral molecular properties (hydrophobicity, electrostatics etc.) and molecular dynamics. Input is a 3D structure of molecules (pdb or pqr format) from which it generates the SES (Solvent Excluded Surface) using Gaussian blurring and extracts a surface (triangular or quadrilateral) and volume (tetrahedral or hexahedral) mesh. The package is primarily built on top of LBIE (for meshing), Adaptive Gridding (for SES computation). It provides a generic platform to launch various simulation codes like APBS, FEM, BEM.
The package will be released soon.
Molecular Signatures is to identify and distinguish biomolecules,
and develop clustering methods based on certain signatures or fingerprints.
The fingerprints are computed from both shapes and properties such as electrostatic potentials.

Ganith is an algebraic geometry tookit, used for the computation
and visualization of algebraic equations. It also provides
the computational mathematics infrastructure for the Shastra toolkits.
Tiling contains a tracing program, which helps a user to generate a contour on one image; a tiling program, which creates triangle meshes for a stack of contours; and a tetrahedralizing program, which creates tetrahedra meshes from a stack of contours.
