LUMI Benchmark and Development 2024

Open for Proposals

The purpose of the LUMI Benchmark and Development calls is to support researchers and HPC application developers by giving them the opportunity to develop, test, optimise and benchmark their applications on the upcoming/available LUMI system prior to applying for a regular LUMI Sweden project.

To apply, you must be a scientist in Swedish academia, at least at the level of assistant professor. Normally previous experience from NAISS Medium/Large Compute projects, or equivalent, is required.

HPC2N "fika"

Welcome to the second online coffee-chat with HPC2N!

These informal coffee-chats, "HPC2N fika", are meant for HPC2N’s current and potential users.

It is a chance for you to discuss any HPC-related problems associated with your research and to get advice from HPC2N’s application experts and other staff.

This "HPC2N fika” will be on Thursday, 23 May at 13:00 – 14:00.

We will start with a few updates about HPC2N and our new hardware. After that the floor is open.

Suggestions for topics to bring up

Course: Using Python in an HPC environment

This online course, taking place on 15 May 2024, 09:00-17:00, aims to give a brief, but comprehensive introduction to using Python in an HPC environment. You will learn how to use modules to load Python, how to find site installed Python packages, as well as how to install packages yourself. In addition, you will learn how to use virtual environments, write a batch script for running Python, use Python in parallel, and how to use Python for ML and on GPUs. 

There are three new nodes available on Kebnekaise.

Two of the new nodes have dual NVIDIA A100 GPUs and one is a many-core CPU node.

There are some notable differences with these nodes.
