The Research Computing Center (RCC) is a centralized service that provides
high-end computing and visualization resources to researchers at the
University. This presentation will discuss services offered by the RCC and
provide information on how to get a computing or storage resource
allocation, the Cluster and Consultant Partnership Programs, and an
overview of the computational resources and performance of RCC’s computing
infrastructure.

The hands-on component of this workshop will begin by giving you the
opportunity to create an account on Midway, a high performance computer
that serves the UChicago research community with approximately 5000 Intel
Sandy Bridge processing cores, Nvidia GPUs, and large amounts of shared
memory.  Attendees will be able to use their RCC accounts to compile code,
submit jobs using the SLURM batch scheduler, explore the software module
system, and learn about rcchelp, a custom online documentation system.

Prerequisites:

- Attendees are encouraged to bring a laptop to participate in the hands-on
session
