It has survived so long because it’s a power tool that allows people to do complex things with just a few keystrokes. More importantly, it helps them combine existing programs in new ways and automate repetitive tasks so they aren’t typing the same things over and over again. Use of the shell is fundamental to using a wide range of other powerful tools and computing resources (including 'high-performance computing' supercomputers). This Software Carpentry workshop will start you on a path towards using these resources effectively. 2023-06-19 09:00:00 UTC 2023-06-19 12:30:00 UTC QCIF QCIF training@qcif.edu.au [] [] workshop open_to_all [] -

16 May 2023
Containers for Reproducible Computational Environments https://www.qcif.edu.au/trainingcourses/container-intro/ https://dresa.org.au/events/containers-for-reproducible-computational-environments Containers are self-contained pieces of software that allow you to run applications easily across all sorts of different computing hardware – from your laptop to your institutional high-performance computing system – without the need for a complicated installation process. Containers are also an effective way of achieving a reproducible analysis pipeline, allowing researchers to ensure that the same version of an application and consistent computational environment are used each time. This short introductory course will show you how to find and use Singularity containers in a typical university HPC (high performance computing) context. The workshop does not cover the use of the Docker container platform, although you will learn how to import Docker containers into Singularity. 2023-05-16 09:00:00 UTC 2023-05-16 12:00:00 UTC QCIF QCIF training@qcif.edu.au [] [] workshop open_to_all [] -

It has survived so long because it’s a power tool that allows people to do complex things with just a few keystrokes. More importantly, it helps them combine existing programs in new ways and automate repetitive tasks so they aren’t typing the same things over and over again. Use of the shell is fundamental to using a wide range of other powerful tools and computing resources (including 'high-performance computing' supercomputers). This Software Carpentry workshop will start you on a path towards using these resources effectively. 2023-06-19 09:00:00 UTC 2023-06-19 12:30:00 UTC QCIF QCIF training@qcif.edu.au [] [] workshop open_to_all [] -
