This workshop series provides an introduction to accessing and
computing on remote servers such as UC Davis’ “Farm” cluster. The series
covers everything you need to know to get started: how to set up and
use SSH to log in and transfer files, how to install software with
conda, how to reserve computing time and run programs with SLURM, and
shell commands that are especially useful for working with servers.
Prerequisites: Participants must have taken DataLab’s “Overview of Remote and High
Performance Computing (HPC)” workshop and “Introduction to the Command
Line” workshop series, or have equivalent prior experience. Participants
must be comfortable with programming in a language such as R or Python,
and with basic Linux shell syntax.
Instructors: This series is taught by DataLab’s data scientists Drs. Oliver Kreylos, Tyler Shoemaker, and Nick Ulle.
