Date: Monday 15 – Wednesday 17 February 2021
Location: The Cyprus Institute, Online
Description
Attendees will receive hands-on training on how to remotely access and use the National Competence Center infrastructure, how to run their codes efficiently on the infrastructure, basics of parallel programming, and guidance on how to write a competitive proposal for computational resources. This is crucial for helping user communities in Cyprus to capitalise on EuroHPC opportunities, such as access to EuroHPC leadership computers, participation in EuroHPC research and innovation calls and collaboration with other EU members of EuroHPC.
This event is part of the EuroCC project and the National Competence Center activities.
Pre-requisites
Attendees should be familiar with at least one programming language, such as C/C++, Fortran, Python, R.Git Repository
