Introduction to Artemis HPC

Synopsis: Introduces Sydney’s High Performance Computer (HPC), ‘Artemis’. We cover connecting and navigating Artemis, available software, and how to submit and monitor jobs using the PBS Pro scheduler..

Target audience: Students and staff who would like to learn how to run compute jobs on Artemis HPC. Participants must have a valid Sydney University Unikey.

Follow-on courses: This course is part one of the Artemis HPC Training Series.

This first lesson is intended as part one of a pair, with ‘Introduction to the Artemis HPC’ in the morning and ‘Data transfer and RDS for HPC’. It is recommended to register for both, however you may choose to take these courses on separate days as suits your needs.

The third course in the series, ‘Intermediate Artemis HPC’, extends users’ knowledge of the PBS Pro scheduling system, and builds scripting skills for automating large workflows on HPC.

Other advanved research computing course (inlcuding Blockchain, GPU, Matlab), are optional course for users of needing specific training.
