Introduction to HPC: structure and practice

In this half-day introduction, you will have the opportunity to know a bit more about the structure of the HPC (tiers), what resources you have available, and most importantly, how to use and navigate the HPC. 

In this course, you will learn the differences and similarities between

  • VSC (Vlaams Supercomputer Centrum) instances in Gent and Leuven
  • VIB Data Core
  • And a glimpse of what you could find beyond.

 

Objectives

  • Describe differences and similarities among HPC Tiers and usage
  • Access existing HPC infrastructures in Flanders, such as VSC and VIB Data Core
  • Use the different environments in the HPC (storage, analysis, and debugging)
  • Querying and using modules and their versions in the HPC
  • Submit jobs to use software and scripts on the cluster
