DESCRIPTION:Knowing how to use High Performance Computing (HPC) systems is 
 crucial for fields such as bioinformatics\, big data analysis\, image proc
 essing\, machine learning\, parallel task execution\, and other high-throu
 ghput applications.\n\nIn this introductory course\, you will learn the fu
 ndamentals of HPC\, including what it is and how to effectively utilise it
 . We will cover best practices for working with HPC systems\, explain the 
 roles of "login" and "compute" nodes\, outline the typical filesystem orga
 nization on HPC clusters\, and cover job scheduling with the widely-used S
 LURM scheduler.\n\nThis hands-on workshop is designed to be accessible to 
 researchers from various backgrounds\, providing numerous opportunities to
  practice and apply the skills you acquire.\n\nAs an optional session for 
 those interested\, we will also introduce the (free) HPC facilities availa
 ble at Cambridge University (the course is not otherwise Cambridge-specifi
 c).\n\n\nIf you do not have a University of Cambridge [Raven account](http
 s://legacy.raven.cam.ac.uk/auth/account/) please book or register your int
 erest [here](http://bioinfotraining.bio.cam.ac.uk/booking-form/?event-id=5
