ACENET听provides advanced research computing resources, expertise, consulting and training to post-secondary researchers, students and collaborators throughout Atlantic听Canada. Advanced computing entails computationally and/or data intesnive work that is beyond the capabilities of a desktop, including high performance, big data and GPU听computing. It also includes developing cloud-based platforms and portals for research communities, storage and large-scale file transfer.

The following training sessions are听available听to researchers and students听across all disciplines, as well as industry innovators.听Please register prior to the sessions at the links below or on the听ACENET training page.听

ACENET BASICS

Introduction to ACENET & Compute Canada
What is high performance computing (HPC) and what can it do for me? How can听ACENET help? Used by researchers across many disciplines to tackle听analyses too听large or complex for a desktop, or to achieve improved efficiency over a听desktop, this session takes participants through the preliminary stages of听learning about HPC and computing clusters, and how to get started with this听type of computing.
19 May, 10:30-11:30am Atlantic
21 May, 1:00-2:00pm Atlantic


Introduction to Linux
In this session, learn how to get started with Linux, how to create and听navigate directories for your data, load files, manage your storage, run听programs on the听computing clusters, and set file permissions.听
20 May, 10:30-11:30am Atlantic
21 May, 2:30-3:30pm Atlantic


Introduction to Shell Scripting
Participants will learn how to use shell scripting to exercise the power of the听command line. Shell scripting helps you save time, automate file management听tasks, and better use Linux. This session teaches you how to name, locate and听set permissions for executable files, taking input and producing output.

22 May, 1:00-2:00pm Atlantic


Job Scheduling With Slurm
This session teaches participants how to use Compute Canada's queuing听environment on the national systems using the job scheduler Slurm.

ACENET PARALLEL COMPUTING SCHOOL

This school seeks to educate participants听in some tools and techniques used in high-performance computing and scientific听computation. Topics will include听general parallel computing, Dask, Machine听Learning by example, OpenMP, GPGPU, and Message Passing Interface听(MPI). Each two-hour session will include a听lecture and learning exercises.听Participants will be provided take-home exercises to prepare for the next听session. Between sessions, online office hours will be听provided for extra听help.听

The course is aimed at researchers and innovators, both academic and听industrial.听

Participants must have familiarity with the Unix command line, such听as one听might have on completion of the ACENET Basics series, and some level of听programming experience. Participants must also have a Compute Canada听account.听

2 June-9 July, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 2:00-4:00pm Atlantic听
