• If you are an experienced HPC user and are ready to log onto a cluster, you probably want to know
  • what systems are available;
  • what software is available, and how environment modules work;
  • how to submit jobs;
  • how the filesystems are organized.
• If you are new to HPC, you can
  • read about how to connect to our HPC systems with SSH;
  • read an introduction to Linux systems;
  • read about how to transfer files to and from our systems;
• If you want to know which software and hardware are available for a specific discipline, a series of discipline guides is in preparation. At this time, you can consult the guides on
  • AI and Machine Learning
  • Bioinformatics
  • Biomolecular simulation
  • Computational chemistry
  • Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
  • Geographic information systems (GIS)
  • Visualization
• If you have hundreds of gigabytes of data to move across the network, read about the Globus file transfer service.
• Python users can learn how to install modules in a virtual environment and R users how to install packages.
• If you want to experiment with software that doesn’t run well on our traditional HPC clusters, please read about our cloud resources.
