Who Should Attend: GACRC new cluster Sapelo users and zcluster users, or researchers who are interested in learning about the GACRC computing resources, Linux basics (Linux OS, file system, shell, common commands, Linux scripting), and scientific programming (Python, C/C++, Fortran, Perl) etc..
How to Register
If you would like to attend, please respond by email to: pakala@uga.edu. Also please tell us which session(s) you want to attend.
We have 25 seats in the lab room, so we have a 25 user/workshop limit. Please respond at your earliest convenience to register to guarantee your seat. You are welcome and encouraged to attend those workshops to learn about how to work with the HPC clusters at the GACRC.
The GACRC is going to host other training workshops and seminars covering various HPC topics, including HPC introduction, Linux introductory III (Linux working environment and utilities), Bioinfomatics applications, Python language III, Python on GACRC computing resources, C/C++/Fortran programming, etc., in the near future. We will announce those events when they are scheduled.
The GACRC Web Training page can be found at http://gacrc.uga.edu/help/training/ and the GACRC Wiki Training page can be found at https://wiki.gacrc.uga.edu/wiki/Training, from which you can find detailed information about upcoming and past training sessions from GACRC and download training materials.
