The news below is from UF Research Computing for the High Performance Computing Announcement email list. I think goes to everyone with an account at UF HPC, and so folks interested in working with UF Research Computing and HPC with HiPerGator should register for accounts to start getting new news on activities. UF folks can register for accounts on the UF HPC site.
HPC Training
What: HPC Center Training
When: August 7th @ 1:00 pm
Where: NPB 2205
Topic: An Introduction to the Linux Command Line
This session will lead participants through some exercises that cover basic Linux commands such as copying files, renaming files, creating directories, and executing commands. We will also go over some of the applications you can use on your computer to connect to and transfer files to and from the HPC Center.
This session is largely aimed at users who are new to the command line.
Please bring a computer so you can follow along with the exercises. Please also make sure you have a valid HPC user account. To request an account, visit: http://www.hpc.ufl.edu/help/account-request/
