This covers the running at their wiki: https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/image2/index.php?title=How_to_run_IMAGE

It's always hard to find a website or documentation when the software is called something completely generic, but google-fu holds strong.

EDIT: For reference, I found this by doing the following:

  1. google IMAGES insilico gap closing (from your question)
  2. Open top result. (paper that references the software)
  3. ctrl+f 'IMAGES', google reference
  4. look for link in article to software, when there is none google what the acronym IMAGES stands for
  5. open sourceforge page
  6. find wiki

I hate it when it is made this hard

n.b. in the end I did actually find the sourceforge link as the one-but-penultimate reference in the paper.
