Singer Hall 222 (Computer Classroom)
The purpose of this event is to introduce attendees to high-performance computing (HPC), with a focus on two primary areas:
- First, we will discuss the general architecture of such systems and consider appropriate pedagogical and research use cases.
- Second, we will cover specifics of accessing and using Firebird, Swarthmore’s local HPC cluster.
Lunch will be served, but we will not be able to accommodate specific dietary needs after September 2.
