This workshop is targeted at users of the Zaratan cluster who are interested in Python programming on HPC. This course will introduce participants to these topics:
Depending on participants' interests, other Python applications may be discussed as well.
Basic knowledge of the Python language is assumed.
This is a bring-your-own-laptop event. If you prefer using a Unix/Linux shell, make sure that a terminal application (e.g. ssh or PuTTY) is installed. Otherwise you may use the OpenOnDemand web portal; for its use a modern web browser (on Windows preferably Firefox) is required.
While the registration deadline is 10 August 2025, we are limiting this workshop to 55 participants (number of classroom seats) on a first-come, first-served basis, and registration will close once the workshop is full.
NOTE: DIT reserves the right to cancel the workshop for any reason with little notice.
If you have questions or need more information about the workshop, please feel free to contact us.
