| Title |
Digital Sustainability, High Performance and Cloud Computing |
| Description |
Large calculations require large computational power. These calculations can be done by using on-premises high performance computer (HPC) clusters or commercially available cloud services. In science, most computing systems are Linux-based and use job-scheduling to organize calculations with different priorities and sizes. In this course the participant will learn the basics of how to work on an HPC cluster, with cloud computing and job-scheduling software. The course also introduces digital sustainability and practices for making computational research more efficient, reproducible and sustainable. Participants will learn how to use containers and version control to manage software and workflows, as well as the basics of data management plans, FAIR data, open-source software and open data.
The course as well as the exam will take place in person. |
