VU HPC Course 2023 – Step up to clustercomputing & shorten your time to research

Step up to supercomputing with the HPC Course at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

In this course you will learn about tools and workflows that you can use in your research to manage big data and/or big computation tasks.The presentations and hands-on workshops are targeted at PhD level students, who would like to get started with HPC. Examples from daily practice will be used. You will learn to use linux computers and supercomputers to deploy computationally intensive tasks. You will have the opportunity to learn from fellow researchers, from experts from different knowledge fields and technical experts.After the course you will have a broader and deeper knowledge and hands-on experience with HPC to use in your own research. The 2023 course will start November 8th
