High Performance Computing Center North
Remote/online participation: The course will be given on-site, but also streamed, using Zoom. Depending on the developing situation with COVID-19, the course may become completely online. If that happens, participants will be given information about any changes to the course as well as how to connect, using Zoom.
The course will be an introduction to version control, with a focus on Git.
HPC2N is offering an introduction course to our systems, "Introduction to HPC2N" in Umeå, 9 September 2020.
NOTE: The course is currently being planned as both on-site and online, depending on how the COVID-19 situation develops over the summer. Regardless, there will be the option to participate remotely, through Zoom.
This one-day, online course will help users of R get started in High Performance Computing (HPC).
In the course, you will learn how to improve your code so that it could run more efficiently on a Desktop and also in an HPC environment. We will use ML models as one of the examples to show how to run more efficiently at an HPC cluster like Kebnekaise.
The purpose of the course is to learn when a code could benefit from task-based parallelism, and how to apply it.
The aim of the course is to provide MD users with a set of best practices to improve the performance of their simulations. This will be accomplished by tuning the appropriate SLURM switches and flags proper to the MD packages.
Topics to be covered are:
This one-day course consists of a (optional) introduction to Linux, followed by an introduction to HPC and HPC2N. We will focus on Kebnekaise and the usage of our system, including access, modules, and the batch system. There will be a hands-on.

This one day course will start by looking at the basic theory, then go on to setting up input scripts for VASP. We will look at general recommendations for common methodologies used, some common issues when setting up a simulation, and also at running VASP on HPC2N. In addition, there will be a hands-on.
Participation is free. Coffee/tea will be provided.
Instructors: Weine Olovsson, Pedro Ojeda May, Birgitte Brydsö
Time and date: 29. October 2019, 09:00-17:00.
