SUMMARY:Cluster Computing for Social Scientists with R
DESCRIPTION:Want to learn how to work with a supercomputer? And how to translate your R workflow from a graphical user interface (GUI) on your desktop to a scripting/automated workflow for a supercomputer? \nSign upWhat will you learn?\nIn this course\, you will learn the basics of supercomputing. The day starts with an introduction to supercomputer architecture\, including a hands-on session focused on running jobs on a supercomputer. \nThe second half of the programme focuses on translating your R workflow from a GUI (Rstudio) workflow on your desktop to a scripting/batch environment on the supercomputer. Topics covered here include: efficient programming\, parallel computing\, and using the SLURM job manager to send your job/analysis to the supercomputer. \nIn this course you will:\n\nDo practical exercises to learn how to effectively use the national supercomputer Snellius and how to complete your tasks with minimal effort in the shortest possible time.\nExperience how to achieve high performance with R by using the supercomputing facilities at SURF\n\nPrerequisites:\n\nBasic knowledge of Linux (Unix shell) is useful\nBasic knowledge of R is useful\n\nYou must have:\nA personal laptop with an up-to-date browser and a terminal emulator (Putty is perfectly fine for users of the OSSC/CBS RA environment). Using the operating systems Linux and macOS is preferred but not mandatory. For Windows users\, we recommend downloading MobaXterm (portable version) as a terminal emulator. If you are limited in your choice\, Putty also works. \nThe language of instruction is English.
