Course (online): Scientific computing in R, 27 May 2020

Scientific computing in R

This one-day, online course will help users of R get started in High Performance Computing (HPC). 

In the course, you will learn how to improve your code so that it could run more efficiently on a Desktop and also in an HPC environment. We will use ML models as one of the examples to show how to run more efficiently at an HPC cluster like Kebnekaise.

Part of the course will be done on your own computer and part will be done on HPC2N's cluster Kebnekaise. Because of this, you will need accounts at SUPR/HPC2N. If you do not already have those, we will contact you about creating such accounts.

This HPC2N course is part of the PRACE Training courses.

Requirements:  Basic knowledge of R, Linux.
