October 10 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
What will you learn in this training?
In this training, you will:
- learn the fundamentals of performance analysis
- understand the key Slurm parameters for parallel job scheduling, including threads, cores, sockets, nodes, and processes
- perform practical exercises on the national supercomputer Snellius to execute tightly coupled parallel tasks
- learn about the characteristics of embarrassingly parallel jobs and techniques to efficiently handle concurrency
- engage in practical exercises using QCG Pilotjob.
For whom?
This course is suitable for anyone with a basic understanding of cluster computing who wants to improve their ability to run parallel jobs efficiently on supercomputers.
