This workshop is intended for participants who are interested in using supercomputers, including OSU’s Pete. The process of obtaining an account on OSU’s Pete will be described as a part of the workshop. Basic Linux concepts that are used for running programs, writing scripts and programs will be introduced. Taught in a hands-on format, this workshop will introduce how to use the command line, either on a local Linux workstation or through remote access with SSH. Scripting and programming languages will be briefly introduced and compiling and running programs will be discussed. Briefly, how to download and compile software from scratch will also be discussed. For users of Pete, a discussion about available software, using a queuing system such as SLURM will also be discussed.
Presented by Dr. Pratul Agarwal, Assistant Vice President for Research Cyberinfrastructure and Director of OSU’s High-Performance Computing Center.
