HPC2N
High Performance Computing Center North
Learn how to run R, Matlab, and Julia at Swedish HPC centres. We will show you how to find and load the needed modules, how to write a batch script, as well as how to install and use your own packages, and more.
We begin with an introduction to HPC and HPC2N, before going on to a walk-through of the Kebnekaise system, including the newest hardware.
After that, we go through the module system and take a look at how to submit jobs. During the hands-on you will get the opportunity to try loading modules, compile a program, and submit a job to the Kebnekaise cluster. We will look at how to use both the different types of CPUs, and the different types of GPUs.
NOTE If you need a refresher on using Linux (the operating system used on Kebnekaise and most other HPC centres), then we recommend the 3-hour course on "Introduction to Linux" that was given on 3 April and which will be given again on 22 September.

This 3-hour ONLINE course is an introduction to the Linux operating system (OS) that is used on most Swedish compute clusters, and is the most common OS in HPC clusters all over the planet. The course will consist of lectures, code-alongs, and interspersed exercises. It is given under NAISS by staff working at the branches UPPMAX, HPC2N, and LUNARC.
