Spring 2008 Supercomputing Short CoursesThis Spring we feature four short courses. Our Introduction to UNIX a three two-hour sessions course, covers basic material that is indispensable for effective computing on any of our systems. We strongly recommend it, especially if you are not an experienced UNIX user. We continually strive to improve this course because its content is important for the effective use of all supercomputers. This time, in parallel with the UNIX material being lectured on via a standard projector screen, a live login session to one of our supercomputers will be illustrating the use of UNIX commands and ideas on a separate plasma display. The great majority of our users encounter repeated difficulties on account of their weak UNIX preparation. The Introduction to Supercomputing on HYDRA, has matured into a solid practical course. It consists of a substantive and practical survey on a variety of survey topics that include the: login envi-ronment, architecture, batch system and queue structure, compiling with appropriate options for scalar optimization and parallelization, file space allocation, mathematical libraries, and more. No registration is required to attend. Location: Library Annex, Room 417.
You may review more detailed descriptions of the courses and download course material by clicking on the course titles.
Each course is a sequence of two or three sessions stretching across two or three days. Each session lasts two hours. Different sessions are not repetitions.The Library Annex is located in the back of the Student Computation Center (SCC). |
