*Supercomputing for Everyone Series

If the idea of logging in to a supercomputer for the first time is daunting, the Supercomputing for Everyone Series offered by UITS Research Technologies may be just what you’re looking for.

Available training in the Supercomputing for Everyone Series includes:

Unix: The Basics

Go from little to no experience to being functional with UNIX/LINUX in a supercomputing environment.

Intro to High Performance Computing (HPC)

This workshop introduces IU faculty, staff, and students to high performance computing.

Storage for High Performance Computing

Learn the basics of using storage on IU’s supercomputing systems, including data lifecycles and types, moving data in and out of IU systems, and finish with hands-on experience.

Statistical and Numerical Software for HPC

Learn about SAS, R, and Matlab on HPC systems, including functions, submitting jobs, and setting environmental variables for performance boosts.

Intro to R for Biologists

In this four-day workshop, learn about the Bioconductor Project and the basics of RStudio—data types, classes, objects, and more—and how to write and use a function.

Introductory Parallel Programming for Supercomputers

A full-day workshop on the basics of parallel programming on a supercomputer. Harness multiple processors using threads and message passing.

Intermediate Parallel Programming for Supercomputers

A full-day workshop for those comfortable with basic UNIX/LINUX, and using Karst or a similar supercomputer, to become proficient in using MPI to solve parallel programing problems.

De novo assembly of transcriptomes using HPC resources

The National Center for Genome Analysis Support (NCGAS) offers this two-day workshop on HPC usage and de novo transcriptome assembly.
