COMPLECS: HPC Security and Getting Help

02/15/24 - 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM EST

HPC systems are shared resources, therefore all users must be aware of the complexity of working in a shared environment and the implications associated with resource management and security. This module also addresses two essential and related sets of skills that should be a part of everyone’s toolbox, but that are frequently overlooked: (1) solving problems on your own leveraging online resources and (2) how to best work with the help desk or user support by properly collecting the information that can be used to help resolve your problem.

What is COMPLECS? - COMPLECS (COMPrehensive Learning for end-users to Effectively utilize CyberinfraStructure) training covers non- programming skills needed to effectively use supercomputers. Topics include parallel computing concepts, Linux tools and bash scripting, security, batch computing, how to get help, data management and interactive computing. Each session offers 1 hour of instruction followed by a 30-minute Q&A. COMPLECS is supported by NSF award  2320934.
