Training introduction
Welcome to the HPC Beginner Training!
This training program is designed for anyone starting their journey into High Performance Computing (HPC) environments. Whether you are a student, researcher, or professional, this course will provide you with the essential skills needed to effectively work with HPC clusters.
In this training, you will learn:
- What an HPC cluster is and how it operates.
- How to connect to a cluster and interact with it via the Linux command line.
- How to navigate the filesystem, manage files, and edit text files on a remote system.
- How to work with software modules and submit computational jobs to the cluster.
No prior experience with Linux, command-line interfaces, or HPC systems is required. Through step-by-step explanations, practical examples, and hands-on exercises, you will gradually build the confidence to perform basic and advanced tasks independently.
By the end of this training, you will be able to:
- Log in to a cluster and navigate its environment.
- Manage your files and directories efficiently.
- Use software modules to access different tools and applications.
- Submit and monitor your own computational jobs.
Let’s get started with the basics and work towards mastering the power of HPC!
