What is high performance computing (HPC), and what can it do for me? How can ACENET help? HPC is used by researchers across many disciplines to tackle analyses too large or complex for a desktop, or to achieve improved efficiency over a desktop. This session will take participants through the preliminary stages of learning about HPC and computing clusters, and how to get started with this type of computing. Software packages available for applications, data analysis, software development, and compiling code will be reviewed. Participants will also be introduced to the concept of parallel computing to achieve much faster results in analysis. This session is designed for those who have no prior experience in HPC and are looking for an introduction and overview.
