[CIG-ALL] Software Engineering Webinars and Training

[Lorraine Hwang]

Upcoming Webinars and Training events of community interest:

BASICS AND ESSENTIALS OF VERSION CONTROL
Date and Time: Friday, February 1st, 2019 from 2:00 to 3:00 pm CST
Presenters:Dr. David Sondak
Participants will learn why version control is an essential tool for science and explore the popular git version control system. Hands-on and interactive exercises will be used to teach participants about git operations such as clone, push, pull, fetch, and merge, among others. Attendees will learn version control best practices and will be prepared to start using it in their every day lives.

Containers in HPC
Date and Time: Wednesday, February 13, 2019, 1:00-2:00 pm ET
Presenters: Shane Cannon (LBNL)
Description:
Containers have gained adoption in the HPC and scientific computing space through specialized runtimes like Shifter, Singularity and Charliecloud. Containers enable reproducible, shareable, portable execution of applications. In this webinar, we will give a brief introduction on how to build images and run containers on HPC systems. We will also discuss some best practices to ensure containers can take full advantage of HPC systems.

Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing

The Argonne Training Program on Extreme-Scale Computing (ATPESC) provides intensive, two-week training on the key skills, approaches, and tools to design, implement, and execute computational science and engineering applications on current high-end computing systems and the leadership-class computing systems of the future.

The core of the program will focus on programming methodologies that are effective across a variety of supercomputers and that are expected to be applicable to exascale systems. Additional topics to be covered include computer architectures, mathematical models and numerical algorithms, approaches to building community codes for HPC systems, and methodologies and tools relevant for Big Data applications.

Doctoral students, postdocs, and computational scientists interested in attending ATPESC can review eligibility and application details on the application instructions web page.

Note: There are no fees to participate. Domestic airfare, meals, and lodging are provided.
