Learning how to use HPC infrastructure (part I: Intro, Access, Command line)

Do you need to use an HPC cluster, but you do not know how to connect and/or how to use Unix? Then this training is for you.

We will start the day with a broad introduction to the various topics that can be useful for you regarding the HPC environment and then explain how to correctly/efficiently setup your connection to work efficiently (ssh, file transfer/syncronization/...) and finally we give a tutorial on the Linux/UNIX command line interface to interact with the clusters.

Contents:

• Introduction to high-performance computing
• Connecting with SSH from Windows and Linux on CECI clusters
•  Introduction to linux and the command line
