HPC2N
High Performance Computing Center North
This one-day course will give a brief, but comprehensive introduction to Python for Scientific Computing. It will have lectures interspersed with hands-on sessions where you get to try out what you have just learned.
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:
Coffee/tea will be provided.
We begin with a short introduction to Linux, which is what is used on HPC2N's compute clusters. This part is only meant for complete beginners to the Linux operating system, and can be omitted if you are proficient already.
The NDGF All Hands meeting was held at Umeå University this time, on Tuesday, 6 November 2018.
This is a meeting for NT1 staff, and local NDGF site sysadmins. It started out with a session for internal topics to the NT1, then after lunch there was a session for all the local site admins from around the Nordics.
