Introduction to ACENET and High Performance Computing

Thursday, Nov. 13, 1-2:30 p.m.

ED-2018B

What is High Performance Computing (HPC) and what can it do for me? How can ACENET help?

Used by researchers across many disciplines to tackle analyses that are too large or complex for a desktop, or to achieve improved efficiency over a desktop, this session takes participants through the preliminary stages of learning about High Performance Computing (HPC) and computing clusters, and how to get started with this type of computing. It then reviews software packages available for applications, data analysis, software development, and code compilation. Finally, participants will be introduced to the concept of parallel computing to achieve much faster results in analysis.

This session is designed for those with no prior experience in HPC, and are looking for an introduction and overview.
