HPC2N
High Performance Computing Center North
We begin with an introduction to HPC and HPC2N, before going on to a walk-through of the Kebnekaise system, including the new hardware.
Course: Introduction to Linux
This 2-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.
This NAISS course is meant for beginners to the Linux operating system.
Materials:
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.
The eSSENCE call for proposals in Lund in the autumn of 2024 resulted in seven projects (out of 47 proposals) formally starting 1 January 2024. There will be an opportunity to learn more about these new projects in a series of three sessions held online over Zoom. After the talks, there will be a chance to chat with the speakers and other participants.
Below is the schedule for the three sessions with registration links. Note that the first session is already next week, on Tuesday 6 February.
Tuesday 6 February, 10.15-11.30
Learn how to run R, Python, 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.
The course will consist of lectures interspersed with hands-on sessions where you get to try out what you have just learned.
In this course we will cover the following topics:

The course will be an introduction to version control, with a strong focus on Git.
Some of the main concepts, like repositories, commits, trees, branches, and merges will be covered, as will many of the basic commands, like clone, add, push, pull, commit, and fork. We will also go one step beyond the basic concepts and explain the fundamentals of how commits and branches can be manually created by using so-called "plumbing" (low-level) subcommands.
You are cordially invited to the next NHR PerfLab Seminar talk.
The event will take place online via Zoom.
